Abstract
Method for diluting blood, blood diluent, and antimicrobial agents and reagents, especially suitable for use in enumeration and sizing of blood cells. The antimicrobial agent in the blood diluent is potent, but relatively non-toxic to humans, and inexpensive. Furthermore, it does not interfere with blood analysis performed on an automated, blood-analysis instrument.
