Comparative Study of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) Using Trisodium Citrate, Normal Saline and Whole Blood in Ethylene Di Amine Tetra Acetic Acid (EDTA)

Removal of Vanadium (V) from water by adsorption using GAC loaded with ethylene di-amine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) and nitrilo tri-acetic acid (NTA)

The studies on removal of Vanadium were conducted using Granulated Activated Carbon (GAC) in combination with Chelating agents. Ethylene di-amine Tetra Acetic Acid (EDTA) and Nitrilo Tri Acetic Acid (NTA) at 25oC. The adsorption Efficiency was studied in the pH range of 2-8. The results reveals that Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms are followed during adsorption process with the chelating agen...

Normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate in the elderly.

Two hundred subjects aged 60-89 were selected for a study aimed at defining a reference range for the erythrocyte sedimentation rate in the elderly. The study extended a previous survey in subjects aged 20-65. The results confirmed that the sedimentation rate increases with age and that women have higher values than men but suggested that over half of elderly patients with disease would have ra...

study of erythrocyte sedimentation rate) esr) in patients referred to golestan hospital of ahvaz in 2009

background one of the most common tests performed in the hematology laboratories is erythrocyte sedimentation rate (esr) that for monitoring infections, inflammatory and cancers diseases. the aim of this study was investigation of esr in patients referred to golestan hospital, ahvaz. material and methods this descriptive and cross-sectional study was done in second half of 1388 on outpatient an...

Temporal arteritis with normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate.

The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is used to differentiate temporal arteritis from other forms of headache in the elderly. Though temporal arteritis can occur with a normal ESR, this is not generally appreciated in primary care. The case reported here is a 74-year-old woman with biopsy-proven temporal arteritis; her ESR was 22 mm/hr. Of note, her hematocrit was more than 40 percent, a co...
