If you can't why not?
Answer:
No problem, if you can get a sample of the fetal blood.You'd have to have a pretty good reason for doing it though, because it is risk to puncture the amniotic sac (chorioamnionitis, premature labor).
of course, you just stick a needle in them through the mother's stomach. maybe you can also tell from the amniotic fluid, but i'm not sure.
It's safer to wait and test the cord blood after the birth.
If this is to establish or exclude parentage, blood groups are unreliable, due to the large number of possible combinations.
If you get a sample of amniotic fluid, you will be able to get a DNA analysis done.
Yes, it's possible.My teacher's wife had to have it done. Something about the baby could have a certain blood type that would mix and would cause harm to the mother.I believe the process is called amniocentisis. They will test it if there are certain risks.

is it possible to get a serological (eg oxoid strep) test for identifying bacteria if so where?
Answer:
I think you have answered your own question - The company that supplies Oxoid Strep is "Oxoid"
Antisera for identifying groups of Streptococci are available from any medical supply house.
Is it possible to die from not drinking anything and only eating foods without moisture?
Answer:
Yes, it's certainly possible and it does happen. It's called dehydration.
no i don't think so
No, go ahead and try it...
YES, of course! ( Man, what do they teach them these days?!)
YES...
I dont know
Considering the human body is 97% liquid/water, yes.Think of the cells - they need fluid.GOD bless us one and all, always.
yes. it has been recorded that you can only live without water for 40 days.
Yes. A person can only live about 3 days without water.
you can die from dehydration but it will take a long time
I seriously think that that is a terrible idea. No offense to anyone out there. Anyway, you can die if you don't drink/consume anything with water. Your cells need water or else they will dry out or something along the lines of that. Like other people have said, you can DIE OF DEHYDRATION. Duh.
yes, here is the scientific explanation. you need water (to make a long explanation short) your cells need water for most of their chemical reactions, yes i know what you are thinking. but if your cell needs energy it needs to break up stored energy by breaking it apart with chemical reactions.
YES, You lose water at a rate of 4 ml/kg/hr per 1st 10kg then add 2mg/kg per hour for 2nd 10kg, then add 1ml/kg/hr for additional kg above 20 kg. ie 70kg man looses 40+20+50=90cc/hr x 24hr/day=2160cc/day. About 70 ounces of water each day.
Is it possible to drown by falling asleep in the bath, or would it always wake you up?
Answer:
like the other person said, it is possible especially if you have had alcoholic beverages, or if you are a deep sleeper, but also if you have had a long hard day at work or have worked for (let's say) 24 hours straight through. It is possible to drown in the tub, even in only enough water to cover the mouth and nose.
You should wake up. Unless you are under influence of a drug or alcohol, or pills.
do you fall asleep face down or face up? come on! we need details :-)
In normal conditions you will wake up. In case you dont then there is some problem and needs consulation with a medical doctor.
I have fell asleep plenty of times in a royal bath with servant women bathing me,...its most relaxing to the Majesty!
Let's do a clinical study... you try it out and see what happens!
naturally you should wake up or at least move to get oxygen, but sometimes the brain doesn't react. Recently there was a small article in the week about babies not turning around in their sleep when a blanket or something was covering their face, ti is now considered a birth defect
If the tub is big enough and deep enough yes you could drown. You might wake up but if you are a very deep sleeper you could drown. I always wake up in cold water as my tub isn't large enough for me to slip down in.
Is it possible to ever get rid of the fat acquired from taking prednisone for a long time?
Answer:
Of course. Much of the weight gain is fluid, regardless the additional weight will have to be lost the old fashioned way, through diet and exercise. One thought, although diet and exercise are essential, the first step is having the prednisone dose decreased or stopped altogether.The weight gained is through increased visceral and truncal fat deposition, the hardest to lose, but most important because this fat is the most dangerous to health, especially in men.I did a rather extensive Internet search and it's difficult because of all the sites devoted to anabolic steroids. Proper sleep is very important regarding steroid weight loss. I've listed a website below that talks about this subject and recommends some ways to combat this type of weight gain. I hestitate to do so, but any info is better than none. I hope this helps.Rick the Pharmacist
I took prednisone from 12/2005 - 6/2006. I haven't shed a pound. I started running, low-calorie dieting, low carb...nothing worked.The only thing that started me to losing a slight amount of weight was starving myself for days on end.
You may now have Cushing's syndrome.
It is so hard to lose any weight with this disease regardless of what you do.www.cushings-help.com
Hope that helps.
Is it possible to extract nicotine from tobacco without specialized equipment or chemicals?
Answer:
Soaking in water.
Yes, in water. It was used as an early form of insecticide.
Probably but who would smoke,they would go broke the nicotine gets you hooked
is it possible to clone yourself or clone someone in this year of 2007 with all the medical technology we have
Answer:
yes i suppose... technology is very developped today so i think cloning someone is not something difficult for scientists...
Cloning is possible
Not yet!
I think the technology is there: it's just not legal. I'm assuming that you want a complete clone of yourself, and not just a few cells for theraputic purposes, which is legal in some jurisdictions. Just one question for you: why would you want to clone yourself?
I was thinking.I miss my cat Cleo...She died a couple years ago...My cat Lucy is now 5...I love her so much she is the best companion...I don't want her to leave me. I would continue to clone her to have her with me always...I feel there is nothing wrong with that.Cloning people though...hmmm...I have a relative's DNA who has passed away. Now, I would bring him back if I could. I will never have enough money to pay for the process so he will have to rest. I have read up on all the technology concerning cloning, but will look to the scientists for answers here. Your question sparked my interest! good luck.
Other mammals are currently being cloned successfully.
Ethical debates aside, if you're want to clone yourself and have them live to your age- no. We've cloned animals yes, but they have plenty of defects. And success percentage, even in the highest is like 3% for birth. Survival rate till adulthood without crippling/abnormal symptoms is also horribly low.
