reservoir, capped and mixed by manual inversion eight times allowing the air bubble to
reach the end of the tube with each inversion. Following manufacturer instructions
carefully, the Dispette 2 tubes were grasped at the 180 mm region and inserted through
the cap membrane of the filling reservoir. After penetrating the reservoir, the pipet was
gently pushed to the bottom of the reservoir and tubes were gently transferred and
placed on a level stand at room temperature. ESR levels were recorded in mm/hr at
exactly 60 minutes.
Sample Preparation for Diesse CUBE 30 TOUCH:
Blood samples collected in standard 13 x 75 mm, 4.0 mL draw volume K2EDTA tubes
were inverted six to eight times allowing the air bubble to reach the end of the tube with
each inversion. Identification numbers assigned to each donor were entered into the
CUBE 30 TOUCH systems. When prompted, the tubes were inserted into a free position
in the CUBE 30 TOUCH to initiate testing. Results in mm/hr automatically printed at the
conclusion of the 20-minute measurement.
Results:
In summary, the data collected indicates the CUBE 30 TOUCH system meets or exceeds
a 94% correlation to the Modified Westergren method for 4.0 mL CUBE 30 TOUCH
samples.
