Procedure: 1  Divide the slide into two sections with grease pencil. 2  2Place a small drop of distilled water on each area. 3  Emulsify one or two colonies of Staphylococcus on blood agar plate on each drop to make a smooth suspension. 4  The test suspension is treated with a drop of citrated plasma and mixed well with a needle. Do not put anything in the other drop that serves as control. The control suspension serves to rule out false positivity due to auto agglutination. Clumping of cocci within 5-10 seconds is taken as positive.
The IOM report did not specify requirements for water but made general fluid intake recommendations based on survey data of 91 ounces (that's 11-plus cups a day) for women and 125 ounces (15-plus cups a day) for men. Remember, these guidelines are for total fluid intake, including fluid from all food and beverages.
How much water should 110 pound person drink each day? There are at least two schools on water intake by humans. One school recommends a daily water intake based on a person's weight in pounds. Divide the number of pounds inâ¦ half - this is how many fluid ounces of water you should consume each day. So, for a 110 pound person, this would mean 55 fluid ounces of water per day. This amount should be further adjusted based on the person's level of physical activity.
