0.34 ml on a syringe represents 34 units on the syringe's scale. To measure it, draw the plunger up until the liquid reaches the 0.34 ml mark on the syringe.
The same way you read ANY syringe. From www.wikipedia.com (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syringes), if you click on the image of the 10ml syringe, you'll see the markings on the barrel. You measure the units of fluid from the needle side back to the plunger - so as you pull back the plunger you draw in "x" ml's of fluid as marked from the needle back. Standard safety procedures surrounding the use of a syringe should always be followed, and in no way is this short answer a full and complete explanation of how to correctly/safely use a syringe.

A 3 cc syringe is the best size.
The nurse used a syringe to administer the patient's medication.
No, a tuberculin syringe is intended for use in intradermal injections and the flu shot is given intramuscularly. The needle on a tuberculin syringe is not the right size.
I work at a hospital and we usually use ml's or cc's depending on the type of syringe.
Tapping a syringe causes any air bubbles to collect at the highest point in the syringe, and usually done when pointing it upwards. This makes removing air bubbles easier, which makes the syringe's use safer.
Dilute Equine Ponazuril paste for cats and dogs with water. To make a 50mg per ml solution mix 10ml paste to 20ml water. Make sure to mix/shake thoroughly. Easiest way I have found is to mix it in a large flushing syringe that holds 50ml. Remove the plunger from the syringe and put your finger over the smaller opening to keep the liquid from leaking out and from the top add warm water to the 20ml mark on the syringe and then squeeze paste into the syringe until the water level rises to 30ml. Carefully put the plunger back into the syringe with the open end up so nothing leaks out. Once the plunger is firmly in the syringe you can plug the other end again with your finger and shake vigorously to mix. Use it immediately. Usually dosage for puppies is 1ml of the mixed solution per kg (2.2 lbs) of body weight daily for 1-5 days. Can be repeated in 1 week if necessary.
