Abstract:
Provided is a reagent for measuring hemoglobins capable of satisfactorily causing hemolysis and measuring hemoglobins with high accuracy. The reagent for measuring hemoglobins according to the present invention is a reagent for measuring hemoglobins used for measuring hemoglobins by cation exchange liquid chromatography, including a specific nonionic surfactant or a specific amphoteric surfactant.
Abstract:
To provide a device for concentration and separation of circulating tumor cells, capable of recovering circulating tumor cells in a blood-derived specimen simply, at a high recovery rate, and with low invasion of the tumor cells. A device for concentration and separation of circulating tumor cells present in a blood-derived specimen, in which a cell separating agent with thixotropic property having a specific gravity ranging from 1.050 to 1.080 and enabling the separation of tumor cells and blood cells other than the tumor cells by a centrifugal operation is housed in a bottomed tube-shaped container closed at one end and opened at the other end.
