An automated method for recording the Westergren erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
The peroxydatic activity of haemoglobin in the presence of hydrogen peroxide catalyses the oxidation of TMB to a coloured product. Haemoglobin peroxidase has been termed a 'pseudoperoxidase'7 because, unlike true peroxidases which exhibit specificity for phenols, erythrocytes contain a peroxidase (erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase) specific for oxidation of reduced glutathione. This causes the...
متن کاملComparative Study between the Westergren and Automated Method for Determination of the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate
A comparative study between the standard Westergren and a new automated method for the determination of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was performed on 80 individual subjects. From this study, the comparison-of-methods plot automated method (X) and VS Westergren method (Y) gave the least square linear regression equation of Y=0.978 X + 0.64 (r=0.98). Precision analysis gave a coefficient ...

In their article entitled: “The decrease in erythrocyte sedimentation rate related to general anesthesia”, Clin Hemorheol Microcirc 35 (2006) 459–462, Caglayan and co-workers have investigated the effects of general anesthetic agents on erythrocyte properties, reflected in changes in the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). In their introduction the authors referred to the one-hour ESR method ...
متن کاملAberration of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate by Zinc Nanoparticles
Dear Editor, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a useful basic clinical pathology laboratory investigation. It can be helpful in diagnosis and follow-up of several diseases. At present, a new automated method with proven reliability is available for ESR test (1). Here, the authors report on observation on a laboratory experiment to test the effect of zinc nanoparticles on ESR results. The...
متن کاملC-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate: Continuing role for erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Background: Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) tests are often done to detect or monitor patients with suspected inflammatory disorders. The objective of the study was to ascertain if the manual ESR test added value to the information available from automated CRP results alone. Methods: In this retrospective, observational study at a safety-net hospital, the ESR a...
