Abstract
A hematology control is disclosed which is useful for clinical hematology procedures and, in particular, mean corpuscular volume (MCV) determinations. The hematology control comprises an aqueous suspension of red blood cells in which varying levels of MCV are provided by applying to the red cell component, after light treatment with aldehyde, an osmotic pressure that is directly proportional to the desired red blood cell size.
