When white blood cells are called to an area of infection, not only is there phagocytosis taking place, but also exocytosis of u

ndigested particles from the white blood cells into the interstitial space. What effect does this have on water in the surrounding cells and capillary plasma? When white blood cells are called to an area of infection, not only is there phagocytosis taking place, but also exocytosis of undigested particles from the white blood cells into the interstitial space. What effect does this have on water in the surrounding cells and capillary plasma?
Swelling of the nearby cells and plasma ensues due to the hypotonic nature of the area. It creates a hypertonic environment, drawing water from the surrounding cells and plasma. These particles have no effect on tonicity, since their precursors were already in the body. It dehydrates the area due to the increase in lysosomal waste products. Plasma water moves to the interstitium by osmosis and then into the adjacent cells.

This makes solution hypertonic which helps in reduction of inflammation in the surrounding cells.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The phagocytosis is the process by which white blood cells take in in different parts of of the pathogens that are invading the human body as well as secreting different toxins which helps them to survive better inside their hosts. Thus these white blood cells takes in the pathogens and thereby digests them and produce the excretory products which are then excreted in the interstitial space. Excretory products from thousands of white blood cells accumulate in the blood plasma and thereby it increases the concentration of blood plasma and makes it hypertonic with respect to the tonicity of the surrounding cells.

In the meantime due to the infection, the surrounding cells are inflamed. The hypertonic blood plasma thereby draws out different amounts of water from the cell and reduces the inflammation to certain extent.

What would be the best negative control to use when testing for any organic compounds
ra1l [238]

Explanation:

A similar question was asked online, here is the answer it gave:

'“Negative control” is a treatment that by definition is expected not to have any effect (neither positive effect, nor negative effect). “Positive control” is treatment with a well-known chemical that is known to produce the expected effect with the assay that you are studying. Application of an antagonist is not a negative control in your case. “Negative control” is condition that should be treated with the same solutions or buffers as your “treatment” condition, with the only difference that instead of the chemical that you investigate you should add just the solvent that was used to dissolve you chemical in the respective final concentration that you have in the “experimental treatment” condition. For example if your chemical is dissolved in DMSO – than the correct negative control will be to add to the medium/buffer just DMSO in the same final concentration that you reach with your “treatment” condition. One of the reasons of using such negative control is to verify that the solvent is having no effect in your assay. Note that among all treatment conditions (“negative control”, “positive control”, “experimental treatment you are investigating”) the volumes and the composition of the treatments that you are doing should be uniform: always treat with the same volume of medium or buffer, always containing the same concentration of the used solvent (e.g., DMSO). The only difference should be the presence or absence of the defined compound-treatments (agonist, antagonist, the chemical for the experimental investigation etc.).'

My best advice is to use the textbook you have, or use examples of a negative control when testing organic compounds because you have to find something that you can assign, like a worm in a box of dirt, the worm could have enough food to survive, so that is your negative control, but when it comes to finding the best, that would have to rely on something within the parameters of being self sufficient like a plant getting its energy from photosynthesis, etc.
