Sedi-Rate offers a simple, safe, economical and highly-accurate method for
performing Westergren ESR determinations.
The polystyrene Sedi-Rate pipette is graduated from 0 to 180mm and features a
unique brous plug located at the zero mark. The plug is specically designed to
be a self-sealing aerosol barrier that stops hazardous substances from escaping
through the top of the pipette.
The polypropylene Sedi-Rate vial features a patented self-sealing stopper that is
easily pierced with a transfer pipette or piercing funnel. The vial is supplied pre-lled
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.
Sedigren offers a unique approach to performing simple, safe, economical and highly
accurate Westergren ESR determinations.
The polystyrene Sedigren pipette is graduated from 0 to 160mm and features a
special piston located inside the pipette. The piston is designed to use a syringe-like
action to draw the blood up to the zero mark. This method eliminates user error and
the possibility of air bubble and aerosol formation.
The polypropylene Sedigren vial features a removable stopper that is easily pierced
with a transfer pipette. The vial is supplied pre-lled with 0.25mL of 3.8% trisodium
citrate diluent.
Sedigren directions for use:
To perform the ESR test, simply add 1mL of EDTA-treated blood into the Sedigren
vial and invert several times to mix. Insert the pipette through the stopper and push to
the bottom of the vial. Place the test unit in the appropriate rack. Then, while holding
the pipette down, pull up on the plastic piston until the blood reaches the zero mark.
If desired, continue pulling until the piston snaps off at its prescored mark leaving a
residual safety plug in the pipette. At the end of 60 minutes, the numerical results are
read in millimeters directly from the imprinted scale on the pipette.
EZ-Rate offers a simple, safe, economical and highly-accurate method for performing
Westergren ESR determinations directly in a 13mm sodium citrate blood collection tube.
The polystyrene EZ-Rate pipette is graduated from 0 to 180mm and features a
unique brous plug located at the zero mark. The plug is specically designed to be a
self-sealing aerosol barrier that stops hazardous substances from escaping through
the top of the pipette.
EZ-Rate directions for use:
Simply insert the EZ-Rate pipette into the blood collection tube. Then, using
continuous force, push the pipette down to the bottom of the tube. The blood will
automatically rise into the pipette and stop at the zero mark. Place the test unit in the
ESR rack (item #3452). At the end of 60 minutes the numerical results are read in
millimeters directly from the imprinted scale on the pipette.
The use of Sedi-Rate™ eliminates splashing,
spraying and aerosol hazards, making it
an optimum choice for ESR testing in
the laboratory.
