Clinical Laboratory

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate is a clinical laboratory test that measures and analyzes red blood cells as an indicator of inflammation, as well as to the patient’s response to medications, such as chemotherapy or steroids.

ALCOR’s fully automated Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) analyzer, the iSED, uses proprietary technology so advanced that it is revolutionizing the ESR market worldwide. The iSED uses smaller blood samples and can produce more results in less time, vastly reducing the cost per test and shortening test turnaround time.  It provides laboratories with a result in just 20 seconds, compared with 30-60 minutes for older technologies.
