Sedi-Rate^® P2

General
The plastic pipette itself is the common feature of the P1, P2, P3 and P4 system. It is manufactured in polystyrene and is treated in this manner that the use of the pipette is identical to the use of a glass pipette. Every pipette has an identical graduation, this from 0 – 180 mm. The pipette features a unique fibrous plug located at the zero mark, which expands when in contact with blood. This leads to following major benefits:

• Due to the location of the plug (at zero value), all blood samples are automatically at initial condition.
• The plug is specifically designed to be a self-sealing aerosol barrier. In this way, the plug guarantees that the blood does not pass which increases the hygiene and safety of the test.

This design distinguishes itself from the simple P1 version as following:
A unique rubber ring is attached at exactly 6 cm from the bottom of the tube. When the sedimentation pipette is pushed into a blood collection tube of 75 x 13 mm (you can use the conventional as well as the vacuum tubes), a pressure is created which pushes the blood automatically up to the plug at the top of the pipette. This in just one move. (No more need for suction). Due to the unique combination of the ring at the bottom and the plug at the top (which prevents blood from passing), a complete hermetically closed system is created.

Safe, hygienic and time-saving!
