Best Answer

If you are using a spectrophotometer to read the samples then you take the tube with the greatest amount of haemolysis as the 100% tube.

Then you place the absorbance readings of the other tubes over the absorbance reading in the 100% tube and multiply by 100.

E.g 100% = Abs of 1.302

Unknown = Abs of 0.620

0.620/1.302 x 100 = % Haemolysis in that tube.

Hope that helps :P
