PHIL Images From This Week   0017713 07/24/2015 08:00 AM EDT This image depicts laboratory technician, Elizabeth Wilkins, as she was looking into a sealed cylindrical cardboard container that held a large number of mosquitoes scheduled to undergo testing in this laboratory environment. The container was covered by a thin netting, and the mosquitoes inside had all lighted on its interior surface, desiring to escape in order to obtain their requisite meal of blood.   0013536 07/23/2015 08:00 AM EDT Here we see a test tube tray containing a number of purple-tipped vacutainer blood-collection tubes. Purple-topped vacutainer blood collection tubes contain the anticoagulant EDTA, which prevents the collected blood from clotting. The contents of purple-topped tubes is generally used when running blood analysis tests including blood counts, hemoglobin, platelet count, etc.   0014043 07/22/2015 08:00 AM EDT During this young boy's day out to the lake with his toys, he was pictured here bent over picking up one of his play-pieces from the wet sand. Given his sun-exposure, sunscreen had been applied to his skin in order to prevent overexposure to the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. However, he would have been further protected if he'd been wearing a darkly-colored shirt, as in the case with the child depicted in PHIL 14038 through 14042.   0013516 07/21/2015 08:00 AM EDT This image depicts a female clinician using a stethoscope she'd placed upon a male patient's back, in order to perform a thoracic auscultation.   0013841 07/20/2015 08:00 AM EDT The state-appointed public health inspector pictured here, was checking the sanitary conditions inside a kitchen. At this point in her inspection, was taking a reading of a food's temperature by using a thermal probe, which provides an interior temperature that must be found to be within safe-range limits.
