State the laboratory prevented an immediate analysis

Reference no: EM13173653

A blood-volume determination was carried out on a patient by injection with 20.0 mL of blood that had been radioactively labeled with Cr-51 to an activity of 4.10 microCi/mL. After a brief period to allow for mixing in the body, blood was drawn from the patient for analysis. Unfortunately, a mixup in the laboratory prevented an immediate analysis, and it was not until 17.0 days later that a measurement on the blood was made. the radiation level was determined to be .00935 microCi/mL. If 51Cr has t1/2=27.7 days, what is the volume of blood in the patient?
