ESR Tubes for Fully Automated Analyzers – Accurate Inflammation Measurement

Sodium Citrate Anticoagulant Tubes for Reliable Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate Determination in Clinical Labs

Product Overview

Determination of the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate for fully automated analyzers. ESR is a clinical lab test that measures the rate at which red blood cells in whole blood descend into a standardized tube, reported as mm per hour, to measure inflammation as inflamed red blood cells settle quickly relative to normal blood cells. A high ESR could be indicative of elevated inflammation.

Description

Sodium citrate is used as anticoagulant to prevent blood from clotting.

Filled with a buffered sodium citrate solution in a concentration of 0.129mol/L (3.8%). The blood to additive ratio is 4:1.

After ESR tube has been filled with blood, immediatelyinvert

the tube 8-10 times to mix and ensure adequate

anticoagulation of the specimen.

Aluminum composite bags available to provide

optimum protection against additive evaporation,

UV light, dirt and mechanical influences.

All the necessary custom service options to fulfill your project requirements.
