Alsever's solution is saline based liquid used to prevent coagulation of human blood. it is composed of equal volume of 2% dextrose, 0.8% sodium citrate,0.5% citric acid, 0.42% sodium chloride. This solution is used to study in-vitro anti inflammatory activity of crude drugs. this study is called HRBC(human red blood cell) stabilization method.
 
The test was invented in 1941 by the American Hematologist, John Bellows Alsever (1908&ndash;1978).<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/John+Bellows+Alsever|title=John Bellows Alsever|website=TheFreeDictionary.com}}</ref>
