D Correct answer
Explanation

Wintrobe's method is used for determining erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and packed cell volume (hematocrit), not for hemoglobin estimation. Hemoglobin is measured by Drabkin's method (cyanmethemoglobin), Sahli's method (acid hematin), or by spectrophotometry/spectrometry methods.
