Letby accepts the blood results 'prove' insulin was placed in the dextrose solution.
Prof Hindmarsh had previously given evidence to say insulin had been administered between midnight and 9.30am on April 9.
NJ: "Do you accept that?"
LL: "Yes."

Mr Johnson says the insulin administered to Child L was a 'targeted attack' as the dextrose bag had been in place since noon on April 8.
"It follows that insulin was administered while the [dextrose] bag was hanging, doesn't it?"
Letby: "I don't know."
Mr Johnson talks through the process and repeats that, from evidence, the bag must have been in place when insulin was administered.
LL: "If that's what the expert suggests, yes."
NJ: "It follows that it was a targeted attack?"
LL: "I can't answer that."

Mr Johnson says the only two staff members on duty for both days, when Child F and Child L were poisoned with insulin, were Letby and Belinda Williamson [Simcock].
A staffing rota for the April 9 day shift is shown to the court. Child L and Child M are in room 1, with designated nurse Mary Griffith. Letby is designated nurse for two other babies in room 1. Belinda Williamson is the designated nurse for three babies in room 3. Four babies are in room 2 and four babies are in room 4.
