Plasma Hemoglobin or Hb Solubility
48 hours
Based on the catalytic action of hemoglobin on the oxidation of TMB by hydrogen peroxide, rate measured by spectrophotometry
Accredited NRL Laboratory
Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Cut-off 2pm.
Measures the amount of unbound hemoglobin circulating freely in the plasma or serum, outside red blood cells. It's a critical test for identifying intravascular hemolysis.
Plasma
1 mL
