Hemolytic solution, application of such a solution for determining the presence of glucose in blood, and hemolytic process

摘要

A hemolysing solution for use in the determination of glucose in a whole blood sample which comprises (a) a buffer providing a pH of about 6-8, (b) sodium chloride, (c) a surface active agent and, (d) a chelating agent which in the presence of component (c) serves as a stabilizer against glycolysis in the hemolysate obtained by contacting the blood sample with said hemolysing solution.
