Hematocrit: What is it and why is it important?
Hematocrit - What is it and why is it important? Hematocrit (HCT) is an important value measured during a blood test, providing insight into the proportion of red blood cells (erythrocytes) in the total volume of blood. It is expressed as a percentage and is a key indicator of a person’s health. Importance of hematocrit Hematocrit is an essential part of a complete blood count (CBC) and helps doctors identify various health conditions, including anemia, polycythemia (elevated red blood cell count), and other disorders. A low hematocrit value can indicate insufficient production of red blood cells, while a high value may point to dehydration or certain diseases like polycythemia. How is hematocrit measured? The microhematocrit method is based on the DIN 58 933 Part I standard and uses either EDTA or heparinized blood. A small amount of the sample is filled into glass capillary tubes and centrifuged. This process separates the blood components, with the packed red cells at the bottom and the plasma at the top. The hematocrit value is then read using a specialized measuring scale. A more commonly used method today is automated blood cell analysis, where the hematocrit is calculated indirectly based on red blood cell counts. The centrifugation technique serves as the reference method for calibrating and validating automated instruments. When is Hematocrit measurement necessary? Hematocrit measurement is often part of a routine blood test or used to diagnose and monitor diseases. It is particularly helpful when symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, or shortness of breath are present, as it can help determine potential underlying causes.

We only store your personal data for as long as necessary to achieve the purposes mentioned or as required by statutory retention periods. Once the purpose of processing no longer applies or the retention periods expire, the relevant data will be deleted as quickly as possible. Notice on data transfer to third countries Our website also includes tools from companies based in third countries. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transmitted to the servers of these companies. The level of data protection in third countries generally does not meet the EU data protection standards. This means there is a risk that your data may be transferred to authorities in these countries. We have no influence over these processing activities. External links This website may contain links to third-party websites or other websites under our responsibility. When you follow a link to a website outside of our responsibility, please be aware that these websites have their own privacy policies. We are not responsible or liable for these external websites and their privacy notices. Therefore, before using these websites, check whether you agree with their privacy policies. External links are either visually distinct from the rest of the text or underlined. Your cursor will indicate external links when you hover over them. Only when you click on an external link will your personal data be transferred to the destination of the link. This includes, in particular, your IP address, the time you clicked the link, the page on which you clicked the link, and other information that you can find in the privacy notices of the respective provider. Please also note that some links may lead to data transfers outside the European Economic Area. This could allow foreign authorities to access your data. You may not have legal remedies against such data access. If you do not want your personal data to be transferred to the destination or exposed to unwanted access by foreign authorities, please do not click on the links. Rights of the data subject As a data subject under the GDPR, you have the opportunity to exercise various rights. The rights arising from the GDPR are the Right of Access (Article 15), the Right to Rectification (Article 16), the Right to Erasure (Article 17), the Right to Restriction of Processing (Article 18), the Right to Object (Article 21), the Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority and the Right to Data Portability (Article 20). Right of withdrawal: Some data processing activities may only occur with your explicit consent. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. This withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing carried out until the withdrawal. Right to object: If the processing is based on Article 6 (1) (e) or (f) GDPR, you, as the data subject, can object to the processing of your personal data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation. This right also applies to profiling based on these provisions (Article 4 (4) GDPR). If we cannot demonstrate a legitimate interest for the processing that outweighs your interests, rights, and freedoms, or if the processing is necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, we will cease processing your data upon receipt of your objection. If the processing of personal data is for the purpose of direct marketing, you also have the right to object at any time. The same applies to profiling related to direct marketing. In such cases, we will cease processing your personal data once you object. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. This is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy and can be done with a supervisory authority in the Member State of your residence, your place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. Right to data portability: If your data is processed automatically based on consent or the fulfillment of a contract, you have the right to receive this data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format. You also have the right to request the transfer and provision of this data to another controller, where technically feasible. Right to access, rectification, and erasure: You have the right to obtain information about your processed personal data, including the purpose of processing, categories of data, recipients, and the duration of storage. If you have any questions regarding this or other matters related to personal data, you may contact us using the contact details provided in the imprint. Right to restriction of processing: You may request the restriction of processing your personal data at any time if one of the following conditions applies: You dispute the accuracy of the personal data. You have the right to request a restriction of processing while the accuracy is being verified. If the processing is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data usage instead of erasure. If we no longer need your personal data for processing purposes, but you need the data for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, you can request the restriction of processing instead of erasure. If you object to processing under Article 21 (1) GDPR, an assessment will be made between your and our interests. Until this assessment is complete, you have the right to request the restriction of processing. A restriction of processing means that the personal data, aside from storage, may only be processed with your consent, for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of substantial public interest of the Union or a Member State.

Social Media Presence We maintain a company profile on social networks and career platforms in order to increase our visibility among potential customers and interested parties and to make our company visible to the public. Social networks help us to increase our reach and actively promote interaction and communication with users. Activity and communication on social media play an important role in attracting new customers and employees. Social media and our website allow us to share relevant information about our company, publish events, and communicate important short-term announcements and job vacancies. They also help us to get in touch with users quickly and easily. Social media platform operators create so-called user profiles based on user behavior, such as the indication of interests (likes, shares). These are used to tailor advertisements to the interests of target groups. When users are active on social media channels, cookies or other technologies are regularly stored on their devices, sometimes regardless of whether they are registered users of the social network. Insights (statistics) The data evaluated by social media platform operators is provided to us in the form of anonymized statistics, which means that it no longer contains any personal data from users. Based on the statistics, we can see, for example, how often and at what time our social media profile was visited. Currently, fan page operators are unable to disable this feature. We therefore have no influence on the extent to which the data is processed by social media platforms. Social Media Messenger In connection with the use of social media, we may use the associated messengers to communicate with users in an uncomplicated manner. The security of individual services may depend on the user's account settings. Even in the case of end-to-end encryption, the social media platform operator can draw conclusions about whether and when users communicate with us. Location data may also be collected. Depending on where the social network is operated, user data may be processed outside the European Union or outside the European Economic Area. This may pose risks for users because it makes it more difficult for them to enforce their rights.

The processing of the contact data used for this purpose is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest), in conjunction with § 7(3) UWG, which permits the sending of advertising by email to existing customers for similar products, provided that the following conditions are met: we obtained the email address in connection with the sale of a product or service, the advertising concerns our own similar products or services, the recipient has not objected to the use of the address, and each message clearly and explicitly indicates the possibility to object at any time. Right to object (Opt-Out) Each recipient may object at any time, with effect for the future, to the use of their email address for advertising purposes, without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to basic rates. An unsubscribe link is included in every email. Storage period We store the email address until an objection is received or, at the latest, until our legitimate interest no longer applies. Afterwards, the address is added to a suppression list (blacklist) to ensure that no further marketing emails are sent. Disclosure to third parties / newsletter tracking The contact data will not be disclosed to third parties for advertising purposes. If we use tracking pixels or tracking links in our existing-customer emails, this is done exclusively for statistical evaluation and to optimize our information offering.

Simple determination of your centrifugation values For optimum use of your centrifuge, the RCF (relative centrifugal force) or RPM (revolutions per minute) must be set correctly. You can rely on our calculator to determine these values precisely so that you achieve the best possible results. Our easy-to-use converter simplifies the precise matching of the parameters to your centrifugation process. Calculation of RCF or RPM: Would you like to calculate the relative centrifugal force (RCF) or the rotational speed (RPM) quickly and easily? Using our calculator, you can obtain the corresponding value to the value you already have by simply entering the radius of your centrifuge rotor and the RPM or RCF value respectively. What do RCF and RPM mean? RCF (relative centrifugal force): this is the centrifugal force as a multiple of gravitational acceleration and is often referred to as the "centrifugal factor". RPM (revolutions per minute): this is the rotational speed of the rotor, expressed as the number of full rotations performed by the rotor in one minute. What is the rotor radius? The radius (r) is the distance between the rotor axis and the bottom of the centrifuge tube, measured in millimeters. You can find this information either in our radius look-up or in the operating instructions for your device. The rotor radius is also known as the centrifuge radius, centrifuging radius or rotation radius and is essential for precise calculation of RCF or RPM. Simple calculation for optimum results: our calculator effortlessly performs RCF and RPM calculations based on input of the rotor radius and the corresponding other value. Using the correct centrifugation parameters, you can be sure you will achieve precise results for your application. Disclaimer: Please refer to the operating instructions for your device or the manufacturer's guidelines for precise measurements of the rotor radius and the exact operating instructions.

Why choose R290? Eco-Friendly R290, or natural propane, is an eco-friendly refrigerant with a GWP below 3, offering high efficiency and minimal climate impact, though its flammability requires careful handling. Supports compliance with current and future regulations. Energy efficient Devices are about 10% more energy efficient with R290 Reduces energy costs while maintaining high cooling performance Future proof Natural refrigerants are already used in many refrigerators, air conditioners, and heat pumps. We are following this future-proof trend. R290 does not require complex treatment (recycling) or disposal after use. Helps minimize environmental impact over the equipment's lifecycle. The R290 upgrade ensures your equipment is ready for the future while enhancing environmental and operational efficiency. What does GWP mean? GWP, or Global Warming Potential , measures how much heat a gas traps in the atmosphere over time compared to carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), which has a GWP of 1. The lower the GWP, the smaller the impact on global warming. The propane gas R290, with its exceptionally low GWP of 3, has a minimal effect on the environment. This makes it an excellent choice for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, especially compared to fluorinated refrigerants like R134A or R452A, which have much higher GWPs. Choosing R290 means supporting both sustainability and compliance with modern regulations. Why this upgrade matters Switching to the natural propane gas isn’t just about meeting regulations; it’s a step toward a more sustainable and cost-effective future. Improved energy efficiency and a reduced carbon footprint make your operations greener and more responsible. R290 for more efficient, eco-friendly, and future-ready cooling solutions. But what about Hettich's Refrigerated Centrifuges? According to Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2729, Article 1, c), on fluorinated greenhouse gases, our centrifuges can be marketed and exported until 31.12.2028 , as long as they are used exclusively as defined in the regulation. Specifically, this applies to “laboratory centrifuges that separate liquids of different densities or liquids from solids in a rapidly rotating container.” We are actively working to incorporate R290 as alternative refrigerant, wherever possible. However, in sensitive areas, we need additional development time to ensure we meet our high performance and safety standards. As a result, we view the EU Commission's decision as a significant step forward for both our industry and medical research. For our refrigerated centrifuges, the transition to the natural refrigerant (R290) will take place in stages. The current development status is as follows: MIKRO 2.0 R, ROTANTA 460 Robotic The MIKRO 2.0 R and ROTANTA 460 Robotic centrifuges contain a hermetically sealed refrigeration system with the new refrigerant R290, with a global warming potential (GWP) below 3. MIKRO 200 R The MIKRO 200 R centrifuge contains a hermetically sealed refrigeration system with the refrigerant R134A with a global warming potential (GWP) above 150. All other refrigerated Centrifuges MIKRO 220 R, UNIVERSAL 320 R, ROTINA 380 R | RC Robotic, ROTINA 420 R, ROTANTA 460 R | RC | RF, ROTIXA 500 RS, ROTO SILENTA 630 RS, ZentriMix 380 R: These centrifuges contain a hermetically sealed refrigeration system with the refrigerant R452A with a global warming potential (GWP) above 150.
