Simple instrumentation and procedure with stopped flow system coupled to hydrodynamic injection and spectrophotometric detection were developed for automatic osmotic fragility test (OFT). OFT is a test for abnormal red blood cells based on the kinetics of their rupturing in a hypotonic saline soluti...
