4.7 QBC CAPILLARY CENTRIFUGE
QBC hematology tests require the centrifugation of
blood samples at the specified RCF for 5 minutes
to obtain proper cell banding. The QBC Capillary
Centrifuge is designed to fulfill this requirement.
When using the QBC Capillary Centrifuge, be sure
to place tubes on the centrifuge rotor in a balanced
array (see example in Figure 4-8).
Detailed operating instructions and calibration
check procedures are described in the QBC
Capillary Centrifuge operator’s manual.
