Blood Cell Counter, 2 Cell, Differential

Heavy-duty two-cell differential blood counter with a totalizer window that records cumulative counts. Each cell (LYMPH and POLY) counts up to 999. Internal bell rings at every 100 total counts. Red and white keys improve visibility. Features corrosion-resistant ABS outer shell and dual reset knobs to clear counts. Suitable for medical and laboratory applications.

Product Specifications

Applications and Benefits:

• Differential blood cell counting in labs
• Tracks LYMPH and POLY counts with totalizer
• Audible bell alerts at 100-count milestones
• Reduces errors with red and white keys
• Resets quickly with dual side knobs
• Durable ABS construction for repeated use

Caution:

Only press one button at a time to avoid miscounts. Test and calibrate unit before use. Ensure full depression of keys for accurate recording.

Blood Cell Counter, 5 Cell, Differential

Heavy-duty five-cell blood counter designed for differential cell counts in laboratory environments. Each key (BASO, EOSIN, MONO, LYMPH, POLY) records up to 999. Includes a totalizer that sums all five counts. A bell rings for every 100 total counts. Reset knobs on both sides allow complete zeroing of all cells. Red and white keys improve visibility and help prevent input errors. Constructed with a corrosion-resistant ABS shell for durability.

Product Specifications

Applications and Benefits:

• Used for differential blood cell counting in labs
• Individually tracks BASO, EOSIN, MONO, LYMPH, and POLY cells
• Totalizer provides overall sum of all entries
• Bell alert every 100 total counts aids monitoring
• Resets quickly using dual side knobs
• ABS shell offers corrosion resistance and durability
• Red/white keys enhance clarity and reduce input errors

Caution:

Always press only one button at a time to avoid miscounts. Calibrate and test the counter before use. Ensure full depression of each key for proper recording.

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid (EDTA)

Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is a white odorless crystalline powder used as chelating agent in pulp & paper, cleaning, chemical processing, agriculture and water treatment.

Acid EDTA also known as edetic acid, is an aminopolycarboxylic acid with the formula [CH2N(CH2CO2H)2]2. This white, water-soluble solid is widely used to bind to iron (Fe2+/Fe3+) and calcium ions (Ca2+), forming water-soluble complexes even at neutral pH. It is thus used to dissolve Fe- and Ca-containing scale as well as to deliver iron ions under conditions where its oxides are insoluble.

In Textiles and paper industry, EDTA is mainly used to sequester (bind or confine) metal ions in aqueous solution. In the textile industry, it prevents metal ion impurities from modifying colors of dyed products. In the pulp and paper industry, EDTA inhibits the ability of metal ions, especially Mn2+, from catalyzing the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide, which is used in bleaching.

EDTA is added to some food as a preservative or stabilizer to prevent catalytic oxidative discoloration, which is catalyzed by metal ions.

EDTA can solubilize Fe3+ ions at or below near neutral pH. This property is useful in agriculture including hydroponics. However, given the pH dependence of ligand formation, EDTA is not helpful for improving iron solubility in above neutral soils. Otherwise, at near-neutral pH and above, iron(III) forms insoluble salts, which are less bioavailable to susceptible plant species.

EDTA is used extensively in the analysis of blood. It is an anticoagulant for blood samples for CBC/FBCs, where the EDTA chelates the calcium present in the blood specimen, arresting the coagulation process and preserving blood cell morphology.

In shampoos, cleaners, and other personal care products, EDTA salts are used as a sequestering agent to improve their stability in air.
