Acidified glycerol lysis test in various haemolytic anaemias.
Acidified glycerol lysis test (AGLT) was found to be an appropriate technique for detection of sphaerocytes in blood particularly in hereditary sphaerocytosis. The incubation of blood for 5 hours at 37 degrees C prior to measurement exerts positive effect on the reliability of the test and may further suggest the type of haemolytic disorder.
