lol, I guess its versatile. Red cells lyse fairly easily, if you just let them sit in water they’ll burst due to osmotic pressure (thats why we give people saline/salt water), this is just a really effective method of quickly bursting them I guess. The analyzers are pretty cool, when the dr orders a CBC/complete blood count its one instrument that measures hemoglobin, red cell indeces (red cell size, hemoglobin content, volume), platelets and a breakdown of your different white cell populations all within a few minutes. Blood is pretty cool, I’m not a vampire.
