CK (38 -174 U/L normal range) and CK-MB (0- 24 U/L normal range) assays: give 3 or more examples of diseases or circumstances that could cause patient results outside the expected range. The CK-MB reagent contains the chemical components for the same enzymatic reactions that the CK reagent does. Explain briefly how we are able to measure only the CK-MB activity with the CK-MB kit.

Ten grams of hamburger (from a container of hamburger) were added to 90 mL of sterile buffer. This was mixed well in a blender. One-tenth of a mL of this slurry was added to 9.9 mL of sterile buffer. After thorough mixing, this suspension was further diluted by successive 1/100 and 1/10 dilutions. One-tenth of a mL of this final dilution was plated onto nutrient agar. After incubation, 52 colonies were present. How many colony-forming units were present in one gram of hamburger?
