HemoCue Plasma/Low Hb SystemMakes it possible to easily and accurately estimate hemolysis directly at the point of care
The degree of hemolysis is an essential indicator of the quality and integrity of blood products. The HemoCue Plasma/Low Hb System consists of a specially designed photometer and microcuvette for the quantitative determination of low levels of hemoglobin in plasma or serum specimens, aqueous solutions, or stored or banked erythrocytes.

Incorrect storage and insufficient deglycerolization of banked erythrocyte suspensions are typical situations where hemolysis of red cells can occur. In the laboratory, hemolysis is an important preanalytical factor that affects the accuracy and clinical utility of many test results. By assessing the degree of hemolysis before analysis, the sample can be accepted or rejected. Hemolysis is also a prime consideration in the context of perioperative or postoperative blood salvage where blood is processed by hemofiltration or by cell savers.

The HemoCue Plasma/Low Hb System makes it possible to easily and accurately estimate hemolysis directly at the point of care. You can count on HemoCue for the right solutions for all your needs.
