The ease of being able to test for HgbS with Streck Sickledex kits is awesome.
Hemoglobin S testing of donor units
The Sickledex kits allows me and my co-workers to provide sickle negative units to our hospitals. One of the hospitals that we serve has a sickle clinic and the patients rely on the blood that we supply. One of the other ways that we utilize Sickledex is the evaluation of units of blood that do not filter through the leukoreduction filter. HgbS positive units do not filter well. I love being able to use this Streck product!
