| Bilirubin Test Methodology |
|
Definition
| bilirubin combines with diazonium salt in an acid medium to produce azobilirubin, a colored compound |

"griess test"
nitrites + p-arsanillic acid yield diazonium salt
diazonium salt + aromatic compound yield azo dye
azo dye changes from white to pink |

| Principles of Fluorescent Flow Cytometry |
|
Definition
LED emits a specific wavelength of light onto the test strip
colored product absorbs the light, darker the test pad the less reflected light
detector captures the reflected light and converts it into an electronic signal that produces a result |
