[Investigating the phenomenon of total erythrocyte destruction during an in-vitro hemolysis test by roller pump].
This study sought to address the question, "will the phenomenon of 'total erythrocyte destruction' come about during a long time of in vitro hemolysis test by roller pump". One-day-old boving blood was employed in the test by Polystan pump(group A) and Cobe pump (group B). TMB method was used to measure the level of plasma-free hemoglobin. The samples of plasma-free hemoglobin were taken at the time before pumping and pumping for 4,6,8,10, 12,14 and 16 hours. The index of hemolysis was calculated according to Koller's formula. The results showed that the levels of plasma-free hemoglobin in the two groups both increased linearly during the puming of blood. The index of hemolysis was 0.2960 mg/L group A, and 0.3993 mg/L in group B; no statistically significant difference was noted between the two groups. These data indicated that no phenomenon of "total erythrocyte destruction" was observed in this hemolysis test by roller pump.
