Sedi-RateTM offers a simple, safe, economical and highly accurate method for performing Westergren ESR determinations. The polystyrene Sedi-RateTM pipette is graduated from 0 to 180mm and features a unique fibrous plug located at the zero mark. The plug is specifically designed to be a self-sealing aerosol barrier that stops hazardous substances from escaping through the top of the pipette.
The polypropylene Sedi-RateTM vial features a patented self-sealing stopper that is easily pierced with a transfer pipette or piercing funnel. The vial is supplied pre-filled with 0.25mL of 3.8% trisodium citrate diluent. Simply add 1mL of EDTA-treated blood to complete the 1 to 4 ratio as required by the Westergren method.
Sedi-RateTM and other Globe ESR products are the only systems that are completely closed, thereby offering the highest degree of safety. The use of Sedi-Rate eliminates splashing, spraying and aerosol hazards, making it an optimum choice for ESR testing in the laboratory.
