Sedi-Rate® P4

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.

Decreasing the risk for serious infections during the handling of blood samples is no longer the only concern. There’s an increasing demand for an efficient and hygienic method that requires a minimum amount of blood and obviously yields comparable results as with the standard method.

The SEDI-RATE^® P4-MICRO SYSTEM is the ideal solution!

This system is almost identical to the P3 sedimentation pipettes. The P4 MICRO is recommended in paediatrics and laboratories with low blood volumes.
The tube (55 x 12 mm) is filled with 0,08 ml citrate 106 M, necessary for 0,32 ml blood.
The pipette is graduated and has an inner diameter of 1,25 mm.
