Scientists extracting serum (yellow) from blood samples in Haiti in 2008. Serum is the fluid component of blood which contains no cells or clotting factors. The centrifuge (machine seen at the end of the clip) spins test tubes containing liquid samples at a high speed. This causes more dense components to settle at the bottom and less dense components to separate at the top. As serum is relatively low in density it rises to the top when blood is centrifuged, and can be easily removed with a pipette. Serum can then be tested for proteins called antibodies which the body produces in response to specific diseases.

Haitian Vodou is an African diasporic religion that developed in Haiti between the 16th and 19th centuries. It arose through a process of syncretism between several traditional religions of West and Central Africa and the Roman Catholic form of Christianity. There is no central authority in control of the religion and much diversity exists among practitioners, who are known as Vodouists, Vodouisants, or Serviteurs Interview with Francis Huxley

Healthcare professional drawing a patient's blood before testing it for syphilis using a lateral flow assay, which shows a negative result. The blood moves up the paper strip which has two lines of proteins attached, one control line and one test line. The test proteins will bind to proteins found only in the blood of someone who has syphilis. The control antibodies should always bind to proteins found naturally in blood, forming a visible red line which indicates that the test is functional. If the blood binds to the test proteins, causing two red lines to appear, it indicates that the patient has syphilis. Filmed in Haiti in 2008.
