MUSCAT CHEMICAL TAG::
R.B.C. Diluting Fluid (Grower's) is used as diluting fluid for blood specimen to count the red blood cells under high powder by heamocytometry. In Vitro diagnostic use only.
RBC diluting fluid is isotonic with blood, hence hemolysis does not take place. Normal Saline also can be used. But it causes slight creation of red blood cells and allows rouleaux formation.
