ABSTRACT
Drabkins method has been modified enabling detection of anaemia in a large population. 132 samples of EDTA blood were subjected to hemoglobin estimation by (1) Direct Drabkin (DD) (2), Filter Drabkin (FD) and (3) Special Filter Drabkin (SFD). Hemoglobin estimations by DD and FD compared well on statistical analysis. SFD with a punch diameter of 10.6 to 10.7 mm compared well with DD and is ideal for screening anaemia in field studies.
