AGPT registrars can commence applying to practices for the 2025.2 placement round through the Training Management System (TMS) from Monday, 28 April. Due to this, we are anticipating higher-than-usual traffic to our TMS. Although this may result in slower load times, we will actively be monitoring TMS performance and making necessary changes to remediate any issues. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience and understanding.

This is a Sahli-type haemoglobinometer which is used for measuring the haemoglobin content of blood. The square glass measuring tube at the top of the lid includes a measuring scale based on the ‘Sahli’ haemoglobin estimation system. This is the key analytical component contained in the kit. The other components shown are extractive, storage and cleaning-related.
The Sahli system for haemoglobin estimation was devised by Dr Hermann Sahli (1856-1933), an academic from the University of Bern in Switzerland. The model on display was made by Hellige America Incorporated, an American subsidiary of the German medical instrument house of ‘Hellige’, based in the state of Baden-Wurttemburg.
