Erythrocyte sedimentation rate
Several corrections: the sentence about the zeta potential was removed as its influence is negligible at the scale of erythrocytes in the ESR. Also the description of the mechanism was confusing, implicitly meaning that there is no erythrocyte aggregation at normal fibrinogen levels, which is not true: aggregation increases with the fibrinogen level but already exists at normal levels.
