a simple, inexpensive and safe method for dna extraction of frigid and clotted blood samples

background: extraction of blood genomicdnais one of the main approaches for clinical and molecular biology studies. although several methods have been developed for extraction of blood genomic dna, most of these methods consume long time and use expensive chemicals such as proteinase k and toxic organic solvent such as phenol and chloroform. the objective of this study was to developed easy and...

Validation of the Diesse Mini-Ves erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) analyzer using the Westergren ESR method in patients with systemic inflammatory conditions.

The Diesse Mini-Ves (DMV) erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) analyzer was designed to improve efficiency in determining the ESR. We compared the Westergren ESR method with the 4-sample DMV ESR analyzer for performance and clinical correlation. This prospective observational study, conducted at a 450-bed tertiary medical center, evaluated 291 paired samples from subjects with various systemic ...
