Description
When a Buffer and Powder mixture is sufficiently combined with blood samples, abnormally shaped hemoglobin cells are broken apart. If the solution turns cloudy within 10 minutes, a positive result for Sickle Cell disease is indicated. This may be useful in considering whether or not further diagnostic procedures are needed as Sickle Cell has the capacity to cause many other medical complications both manageable and life-threatening.
The 12 Kit is complete with the following components:
- Two bottles containing 12mL of Buffer each
- Two vials containing 0.35g of Powder each
- Two pour caps for the Buffer bottles
- 12 test tubes
- 12 capillary pipettes held in a capillary vial
- One line scale
- A directional insert
