ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for preparing blood samples containing red blood cells for automated analysis wherein the blood sample on a slide is spun to create a monolayer of randomly distributed red blood cells. To inhibit cell morphology distortions from occurring during drying, the morphologies of the cells contained in the monolayer are preserved by a fixing agent after monolayer preparation but prior to drying when such distortions would otherwise develop. The method and apparatus are particularly useful for fixing red blood cells to prevent loss of or deformation of a central pallor which would be detrimental to a subsequent automated analysis.
