What is the significance of rejection criteria in laboratory testing?
Rejection criteria are used to enhance the speed of laboratory testing processes.
Rejection criteria help in reducing the cost of laboratory equipment maintenance.
Rejection criteria are primarily focused on increasing the number of tests conducted.
Rejection criteria ensure the accuracy and reliability of laboratory test results by defining conditions for invalid results.
What does a hematology test typically assess?
Nutritional deficiencies
Blood components and disorders
Liver function and enzymes
Hormonal levels and balance

Blood culture bottles will expire in 1 day.
Send samples outside working hours
Wrong sample
What is the purpose of a cytology test?
The purpose of a cytology test is to measure blood pressure.
The purpose of a cytology test is to evaluate heart function.
The purpose of a cytology test is to detect abnormalities in cells, such as cancer or infections.
The purpose of a cytology test is to analyze DNA sequences.
Name a common stain used in histopathology.
Giemsa Stain
Safranin O
Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E)
Crystal Violet
What is the difference between serum and plasma?
Serum contains more proteins; plasma has fewer.
Serum is derived from red blood cells; plasma is not.
Serum lacks clotting factors; plasma contains them.
Plasma is a solid component; serum is liquid.
What is the importance of proper sample handling in pathology?
Proper sample handling can lead to false results.
Proper sample handling is essential for accurate diagnostic results in pathology.
Sample handling is irrelevant to diagnostic accuracy.
Inadequate sample handling improves test reliability.
List one factor that can lead to sample rejection in chemical pathology.
