  • Title: [Diagnostic value of acidified glycerol lysis test (AGLT) in hereditary spherocytosis and selected hematologic diseases].
    Author: Apel D, Mariańska B, Maj S.
    Journal: Acta Haematol Pol; 1993; 24(3):267-71. PubMed ID: 8249541.
    Abstract:
    AGLT and osmotic fragility test (method according to Dacie) were performed in patients with hereditary spherocytosis, their relatives and in patients with other hematological diseases. Abnormal results of both tests were observed not only in all cases of hereditary spherocytosis but also in other patients with spherocytes present in the peripheral blood film. In our opinion, AGLT is a good screening test for hereditary spherocytosis and can replace the more time consuming Dacie's method.
