Helps in identification of pipette
Helps in mixing of diluting fluid and blood
To ensure dryness of pipette: Free mobility indicates a dry pipette
3. What are the other uses of WBC pipette?
It is used wherever higher dilution is required Eg; High total leukocyte count and total sperm count
4. Name the diluting fluid used for WBC count
Turk’s fluid
5. What are the composition of Turks fluid and mention their role?
Glacial acetic acid – lyse the RBC
1% Gentian violet- stain the WBC nuclei
6. What are the other uses of W-B-C pipette?
It can be used for eosinophil count, platelet count, sperm count. Cell count in CSF, pleural / ascetic fluid and RBC count in severe anemia
7. Why one drop of fluid from WBC/RBC pipette is discarded?
Diluting fluid in the nozzle is not mixed with blood, hence a drop of fluid will be discarded
8. How to clean the pipette?
Cleaned by filling the pipette with distilled water and blowing it out twice. Finally, it will be filled with acetone and blown out. Acetone removes the water from it and dry it completely
