About This Test
Osmotic fragility measures the red blood cell resistance to being destroyed (hemolysed) while being exposed to varying levels of dilution of saline solution. This test is used to detect conditions such as Hereditary spherocytosis & Thalassemia. Conditions that increase red cell fragility are Hereditary spherocytosis, Autoimmune hemolytic anemia, toxins, poisons, infections & drugs like aspirin. Decreased red cell fragility is seen in Thalassemia, Iron deficiency anemia & Sickle cell anemia.

Report Next day except sunday.
4. Why this test is important ?
The Red Blood Cell (RBC) Fragility Test is important because it evaluates how susceptible your red blood cells are to breaking (hemolysis) under stress, which helps detect certain anemias and hereditary blood disorders.
