In my long years of practice in clinical laboratory we usually use refractometer in measuring specific gravity but not in total serum protein.

Steven Our agency have been issuing blood cards for all donors and who visit our blood center to do thier blood type since then. The ID is somewhat use also as identification card it has the person name on it address, blood type, phone number and the owner's signature. the card that we issue is color coded depends on what the blood type of that person. At the back is you can put your picture on it and and persons name whom to notify in case of emergency and signature of the laboratory personnel who did the blood type. Well this just to give you an idea on what demographic that we put in our blood card. It would be best and unique if you issue a blood card with a rare blood group or rare antibody on it. Well i guess in our part if we had this type of card well health providers may know the bearer's blood group or rare antibody present. antonio m.

hieu, in our situation before use of rapid test is common but right now EIA for screening test is best use. if initial result shows reactive we repeat test. if still reactive we usually refer it to reference laboratory for confirmatory. our algorithm says to repeat test in duplicate if still reactive we refer sample to a reference lab for confirmatory....by the way do you have any other screening test available at your lab or a back up test kit?

hi there, have you every tried to adjust the RCF of your ref centrifuge? or you just stick to speed of 850g?...our center the first spin for PRP is at spin of 1600 for 10 minutes of spin. there are instances we also experience the same presence of red cells in the plasma what we do is try to allow the red cells to settle for 30 minutes before we spin. give some feedback if this will work tonz

thank you for the info we actually run a series of validation of our coolers using cube ice of 1 kg at the end of the validation 24 hours after we observe that temperature go beyond 10c highest of 12 c. i was thinking of running another validation to our cooler (coleman). we actually using our coolers for transport from mobile sites to our blood center. anyone of you have experience on coleman coolers?
