Hemolysis QC

Precise free hemoglobin measurement of supernatant of RCC

Pebble
Hemolysis QC is essential for accurately measuring free hemoglobin in the supernatant of stored red blood cell concentrates. It helps assess hemolysis levels, ensuring the quality of blood banks and transfusion laboratories.

Hemolysis QC is essential for accurately measuring free hemoglobin in the supernatant of stored red blood cell concentrates. It helps assess hemolysis levels to support the quality assessment of stored red cell concentrates (RCC).

This compact, specially developed device delivers reliable results in just 1–2 seconds. It uses broad-spectrum photometric technology and compensates for stray light, ensuring high measurement accuracy.

Results can be transferred directly from the Hemolysis QC to your PC or laboratory database using EKF Link, allowing seamless data integration.

Hemolysis QC is maintenance-free and user-friendly. It operates via a power supply or USB connection and integrates easily into existing lab workflows.

The system provides a fast, precise, and practical solution for monitoring hemolysis in RCC, ideal for laboratories focused on quality and efficiency.
