The oppositely-charged ions are arranged in a regular way to form a giant ionic lattice. It is a 'lattice' because the arrangement is a regular one and 'giant' because the arrangement is repeated many times with large numbers of ions. Ionic compounds often form crystals as a result.The diagram shows part of a sodium chloride ionic lattice.Now try a Test Bite.t is a 'lattice' because the arrangement is a regular one and 'giant' because the arrangement is repeated many times with large numbers of ions.

Hemolysis, also spelled haemolysis (from the Greek Î±á¼·Î¼Î± (aima, haema, hemo-) meaning blood and Î»ÏÏÎ¹Ï (lusis, lysis, -lysis) meaning a loosing, setting free or releasing), is the rupturing of erythrocytes (red blood cells) and the release of their contents (cytoplasm) into surrounding fluid (e.g. blood plasma).n vitro hemolysis during specimen collection can cause inaccurate laboratory test results by contaminating the surrounding plasma with the contents of hemolyzed red blood cells.
Hemolysis can occur in vivo (in the patient), due to a variety of medical conditions, including antigen-antibody reactions, hemolytic anemias, toxins and poisons, mechanical RBC rupture due to artificial heart valves, as well as treatments such as hemodialysis and the use of the heart-lung bypass machine.emolysis can occur in vivo (in the patient), due to a variety of medical conditions, including antigen-antibody reactions, hemolytic anemias, toxins and poisons, mechanical RBC rupture due to artificial heart valves, as well as treatments such as hemodialysis and the use of the heart-lung bypass machine.
