  Performed diagnostic testing for various hematological and metabolic assays. Hematological assays include hemoglobin, platelet and white blood cell (WBC) concentrations for newborns. These series of tests were performed on a Sysmex-9100 analyzer for hematological screenings and a Beckman-Coulter AU480 for special chemistry assays. Metabolic assays include clinical chemistries consisting of creatinine, glucose, HDL, LDL and lipid concentrations. These tests were performed on a Beckman-Coulter AU480 chemistry analyzer. Prepared various reagents, including calibration and quality-control material, as well as nitric acid solutions for monthly analyzer maintenance. Show less
