Question 1

The IFI company whose ad is shown below makes molecular diagnostic tests for crime scene investigators.

What would be a feature of a lateral flow strip test designed to inform the crime scene investigators if there is any HUMAN BLOOD CELLS at the crime scene and thus warrant further investigation?

A) The test detects a protein found only in a common type of human blood cell and all humans make the same protein.

B) The test detects a human protein but is only made when the humans are in fear of their life.

C) The test detects a highly variable human protein and only detects one type of variant.

Question 2

Assume that Fred works for the IFI company and his job is to discover proteins that are specific to different kinds of human body fluids recovered at crime scenes such as blood, saliva, semen or urine. Once he discovers these proteins, he purifies them and injects them into lab rabbits or cultured immune system cells to make antibodies to these proteins.

In contrast, Wilma is a crime scene investigator who uses the test kits made by the IFI company in such a way that they generate information that is useful to the investigating detectives and could be held up as evidence in court. Based on the work they do in MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS, choose the best answer below.

A) Fred's work is molecular diagnostic science and Wilma's is molecular diagnostic technology.

B) Fred does technology work while Wilma's work in detecting molecules at crime scenes is science.

C) Both Fred and Wilma are doing science because they work with the same molecules.

Explanation / Answer

Q1. The feature of a lateral flow strip test that should be designed to inform the crime scene investigators if there is any HUMAN BLOOD CELLS at the crime scene and thus warrant further investigation is A) The test detects a protein found only in a common type of human blood cell and all humans make the same protein for the main purpose is detection of HUMAN BLOOD CELLS so the maker has to be common in all human blood cells

Question 2:

B) Fred does technology work while Wilma's work in detecting molecules at crime scenes is science.
