A higher level of hemoglobin in the blood increases the blood’s density. This is the basis for a simple test that can be used to see if a prospective blood donor has a high enough hemoglobin level to donate safely. A drop of blood is placed in a copper sulfate solution, and the time for the drop to sink to the bottom is measured. If this time is too long, the hemoglobin level is toolow. Explain how this test works.

Hematology

Hematology is the branch of biology. Hematology is the medical field that deals with the treatment of blood disorders and cancers, such as hemophilia, leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle-cell anemia. Hematologists and hematopathologists are medical professionals who specialize in illnesses of the blood and its components.
