QUESTION 5

A 3-year-old child has a history of serious infections and is currently hospitalized with meningitis. The doctor suspects that he may have a complement deficiency and orders testing. A buffer that chelates calcium was added to specimen. There was a decrease radial haemolysis on agarose plate a) Which complement pathway accounted for the result obtained and how will the result in terms of hemolysis at 50 %?  b) What is hydrodynamic focusing and why is it an important feature of an instrument.
