The work

20、of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-government

21、al, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The mai

22、n task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Att

23、ention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 13079 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 48, Laboratory equipment, Subcommittee SC 6, Glass

25、rd specifies requirements for single-use and re-usable glass and plastics tubes for measuring the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) by the Westergren method, and for a support to hold tubes during the performance of the test. These so-called “Westergren tubes” are also sometimes designated as “We

26、stergren pipettes”. A procedure for measuring the erythrocyte sedimentation rate by the Westergren method is given in informative Annex D. This International Standard does not apply to single-use containers for human venous blood specimen collection and their accessories for which other standards ap

27、ply. It also does not apply for devices where the Westergren method has been used as basis to develop other, similar methods or equipment for the erythrocyte sedimentation rate determination. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this docu

28、ment. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. ISO 719, Glass Hydrolytic resistance of glass grains at 98 C Method of test and classification 3 Material 3.1 General 3.1.1 Westergren

29、 tubes shall be made from rigid, transparent plastics or from glass of Class HGB 1, HGB 2 or HGB 3 in accordance with ISO 719 so that: a) the rigidity, when tested according to Annex A, shall be such that the distortion does not exceed 1 mm for re-usable Westergren tubes and 1,5 mm for single-use We

30、stergren tubes; b) the transparency shall be sufficient to permit the top of the column of blood and the top of the red cell layer to be seen clearly in relation to the scale. 3.1.2 Westergren tubes shall be free from defects which impair observation of the top of the column of blood and of the top

31、of the red cell layer. 3.2 Glass The manufacturer of the glass tubes should ensure that the glass tubes are as free as possible from visible defects and reasonably free from internal stress.

32、plastics tubes are made shall not affect the ESR value, when tested in accordance with the method described in Annex B, by more than 6 mm. 3.3.2 The manufacturer of the plastics tubes shall ensure the following: a) they shall not show adhesive properties towards blood cells; b) they shall not releas

33、e plasticizers that might alter sedimentation; c) if a mould-release agent is used in the manufacturing process, it shall not alter sedimentation. 3.3.3 The user should also check the validity of a batch of plastics tubes by comparing the ESR obtained when the test is performed using some of these w

34、ith the results when glass reference tubes are used. 4 Single-use Westergren tubes 4.1 General design The general design of the single-use Westergren tube shall be as shown in Figure 1. 4.2 Straightness The tube shall be straight when tested in accordance with the method described in Annex C. 4.3 Fi

35、nish 4.3.1 The glass tube shall be cut square (within 10) with the axis of the tube, and shall be lightly fire polished at each end. The ends may be slightly narrowed within or close to the tolerance given in Table 1, due to the finishing process. 4.3.2 The plastics tube should be cut square (within

36、 10) with the axis of the tube. The ends should be smooth and may be slightly bevelled. Other ends are acceptable if they comply with the dimensional requirements as specified in Table 1. 4.3.3 The tube shall be supplied free from any contamination which would affect the ESR value when tested in acc

37、ordance with the method described in Annex B. 4.3.4 The tube, by itself or in association with its support, shall have a mechanism which ensures that the tube remains filled with blood, from its lower end to the zero mark on the scale, during the 60 min required to determine the ESR. 4.4 Dimensions
