1.2.1. Patient Testing
The analyzer can process 30 samples per hour in 3-part WBC differential mode.
Samples can have individual sample data, and additional parameters.
You can print results to an external or to the optional built-in printer. The user can
customize the report format.
The analyzer determines the following 18 hematology parameters, including 3-part
WBC differential, from a 25 µl whole blood sample:
WBC total white blood cell count
LYM* lymphocytes count
MON* monocytes count
NEU* neutrophil count
LYM%* lymphocytes percentage
MON%* monocytes percentage
NEU%* neutrophil percentage
HGB hemoglobin
RBC red blood cell count
HCT hematocrit
MCV mean corpuscular volume
MCH mean corpuscular hemoglobin
MCHC mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration
RDWc v** red cell distribution width
PLT platelet count
PCT platelet percentage
MPV mean platelet volume
PDWcv** platelet distribution width
* Only in
**RDW and PDW parameters have two forms of representation: CV and SD.
Both parameters describe the distribution width, but from different aspects. User can
select the units to use for displaying RDW and PDW parameters.
