A red blood cell count was performed using the Ery-TIC system. When the average cells counted was calculated, it was found to be 402 RBCs. Use the formula for the system to find the red blood cells/µL. Show the formula and the total red blood cell count.
What will be an ideal response?
Formula: the RBC count = avg. # cells counted % 200
0.2 % 0.1
402 cells counted % 200
0.02
402 cells % 10,000 = 402 % 10,000 = 4.02 million µL
4.02 % 106 /µL
OR
4.02 % 1012 /L
