Adjectival Hyphens

error

"Observation of a wheal at the site of injection of the hydatid cyst origin fluid at 30 minutes post-injection is regarded as a positive test ¹. Observation of a delayed reaction is also possible."

Line 5:99 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'post-injection'.

Oxford Comma

suggestion

"The Casoni skin test is a hypersensitivity based skin test used to detect hydatid disease. Although once a major test in diagnosing hydatid disease it has largely been superseded by newer more sensitive, specific and safer serological tests."

Line 1:221 · Use the Oxford comma in 'sensitive, specific and safer'.
