ARUP was founded by John Matsen and Carl Kjeldsberg, based on Lloyd Martin's vision of an independent, not-for-profit laboratory owned by the Department of Pathology. [2] ARUP's facilities operate with a high degree of automation. Their 65 laboratories include sorters, automated thawing and mixing, and house a two-story automated lab specimen ...
Flavoplaca maritima is distinguished by its golden-yellow to pale orange, crustose thallus.It often forms extensive patches, characterised by a cracked-areolate surface, which means the thallus is broken into flat, uneven, knobbly sections called areoles.
The ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation (RIPA) is an ex vivo assay for live platelet function.It measures platelet aggregation with the help of von Willebrand factor (vWF) and exogenous antibiotic ristocetin added in a graded fashion. [1]
The epihymenium, or upper layer above the spore-bearing tissue, is reddish-orange to violaceous and reacts yellowish-brown with the C chemical spot test. The hymenium, or spore-bearing layer, is clear and uncluttered. The structure surrounding the hymenium is poorly defined, with few hyaline hyphae (filamentous fungal cells). [4]

A potassium hydroxide (K) test turns the thallus purple, indicating the presence of the secondary metabolites (lichen products) parietin and its precursor, emodin. Under ultraviolet light, the thallus shows a dull, pale orange colour due to the presence of fragilin and caloploicin. The apothecia also turn purple with the K test, indicative of ...
The species was first scientifically described in 1794 by Christiaan Hendrik Persoon, who called it Lichen variabilis. [3] Abramo Bartolommeo Massalongo transferred the taxon to the genus Pyrenodesmia in 1852, a genus he circumscribed to include a group of four species (P. agardhiana, P. chalybaea, P. olivacea, and P. variabilis), all of which lacked anthraquinones (a class of secondary ...
Unlike most members of the Teloschistaceae, Caloplaca soralifera lacks anthraquinone substances in the thallus. Instead, this species contains the unique pigment Sedifolia-grey, which does not dissolve in acetone and is found in both the cortex and the soredia.
