We are pleased to inform you that the analysis of sedimentation of erythrocytes in the Avicena Laboratory will be carried out exclusively on iSED® fully-automated ESR analyzer , by the manufacturer Alcor Scientific.
Unlike the manual performance of sedimentation, this innovative instrument allows rapid, precise, accurate and direct measurement of the intensity of direct red cell aggregation, which is responsible for the rate of red cell sedimentation (ESR).
Reference values for sedimentation, developed by this instrument are:
