    摘要: A process for detecting parasites which are found in the blood of a host. A sample of blood is drawn into a capillary tube which contains a generally cylindrical mass having a specific gravity such that it will float in one of the cell layers when the sample is separated by centrifugation. The specific gravity of the mass is selected so as to cause the cylindrical mass to combine with the bore wall of the capillary tube to form a thin annular space in the capillary tube into which the parasites will be crowded, thus increasing the concentration of parasites in a restricted area of the centrifuged blood sample and rendering the parasites highly visible. A stain may be used to differentially color the parasites. One specific parasite which can be detected in this manner quickly and inexpensively is heartworm.

    摘要: A technique for generally determining the volume of a layer of a constituent material in a centrifugally separated mixture of material. A centrifuge tube is used to hold the material mixture and an appropriately shaped body is disposed in the tube in the zone occupied by the constituent material whose volume is to be measured. The body reduces the available volume within the tube which may be occupied by the constituent material, and thus expands the axial extent of the constituent material to make visual measurement of the constituent material more accurate.

    摘要: A method for determining the hematocrit of a blood sample is provided that includes the steps of: 1) depositing the sample into an analysis chamber adapted to quiescently hold the sample for analysis, the chamber defined by the interior surfaces of first and second panels and a height extending there between, wherein both panels are transparent, and the height is such that at least some of the red blood cells within the sample contact both interior surfaces of the panels and one or more lacunae within the quiescent sample extend between the interior surfaces; 2) imaging at least a portion of the quiescent sample, which sample portion contains the red blood cells and one or more lacunae to determine an optical density of the imaged portion of the sample on a per image unit basis; 3) selecting and averaging the optical density values of the image units aligned with the red blood cells contacting the interior surfaces, and assigning an upper boundary value of 100% to the average optical density value of those image units; 4) selecting the optical density values of the image units aligned with the one or more lacunae, and assigning a lower boundary value of 0% to the optical density values of those image units; and 5) determining the hematocrit of the sample by assigning relative values to the optical density value of each image of the imaged sample portion as a function of the upper and lower boundary values, and averaging the relative values.
