Electronic counter is more accurate than the hemocytometer method. The electronic counter is expensive, needs periodical maintenance. Maintenance of blood counter is very important; failure to do that will result in misleading results. … Read more
An anticoagulant is a preservative that used to preserve the blood sample in a state similar to its state inside the body.

Three values are calculated mathematically and used mainly to measure the average size of the RBC, average hemoglobin weight and percent of hemoglobin per individual erythrocyte. The mean corpuscular values are: – Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), MCV is obtained by dividing the value of packed cells volume (PCV) on the RBCs count, and then multiply … Read more
Hemoglobin (Hb) is the red pigment that contained in the RBCs, its major function is to bind oxygen and transport it to the tissues and to bind CO2 and carry it back from the tissues to the lungs. Hemoglobin has the same life span of the RBCs, after the engulfing of old RBCs by the … Read more
