HemataStat II™

Fast and efficient hematocrit sampling

Pebble
EKF Diagnostics’ HemataStat II™ is a microhematocrit centrifuge that provides a quantitative hematocrit reading for up to six blood samples from one 60-second spin.

Hematocrit is the volume percentage (%) of red blood cells in blood. The measurement is taken as the amount of red blood cells in relation to the amount of plasma from a spun capillary or venous sample.

HemataStat II™ is ideal for point-of-care and laboratory use in clinics and hospitals. Its compact size and the optional battery pack make it well-suited for outreach programs and veterinary settings. HemataStat II™ is used in 100% of the plasma collection centers in the USA as it allows a simple hematocrit measurement and further analysis of the plasma fraction for proteins. The multilingual display provides easy-to-follow instructions to ensure accurate results every time.

HemataStat II™ combines easy maintenance with a high degree of user safety. For example, heparinized ClearCrit® tubes are used to collect the blood sample and are available in plastic,  Mylar® wrapped glass, or self-sealing Mylar-wrapped glass. Two different diameter tubes are available for low and regular sample volumes.

The high-quality HemataSEAL® tube sealant seals both plastic and glass tubes equally well, eliminating leakages and blowouts and ensuring accurate and reliable results time after time.

HemataStat II™ combines easy maintenance with a high degree of user safety. For example, heparinized ClearCrit tubes are used to collect the blood sample and are available in plastic, glass, or Mylar-coated glass, designed for maximum user safety. Two different diameters of tube are available for low and regular sample volumes.

Additional safety features include the high-quality HemataSEAL tube sealant. HemataSEAL eliminates leakages and blow-outs and ensures accurate and reliable results time after time.
