2.1 General
The operator works with a menu from which the desired program is chosen, e.g.
discriminator settings, calibration, cleaning etc.
Two external reagent reservoirs are used:
• Isotonic diluent.
• Hemolyzing reagent.
Whenever one of these external reservoirs is empty, this is indicated on the dis-
play.
The instrument also performs a 3-part WBC differential by means of a cyanide-
free hemolyzing reagent.
A sample memory is available, protected against mains power failures.
Sample search, selective printing and QC options are available.
The instrument is a fully automated hematology analyser designed to measure up
to 20 parameters using whole blood from an open inlet, closed tubes, micro pi-
pettes 20µl or pre-diluted blood.
2.2 Description of Available Parameters
• The number of Red Blood Cells (RBC)
• The number of White Blood Cells (WBC)
• The number of Platelets (PLT)
• The Mean Cell Volume of Red Cells (MCV)
• The Mean Platelet Volume (MPV)
• The Hemoglobin Concentration (HGB)
The size distributions of PLT, RBC and WBC are measured at the same time as
the above-mentioned parameters.
• Hematocrit (HCT)
• The Mean Cell Hemoglobin (MCH)
• The Mean Cell Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)
• The Red Cell Distribution Width (
RDW%)
• The Lymphocyte concentration in absolute number and per-
centage
(LYMF)
• The MID-sized Cells (e.g.Monocytes) in absolute number and
percentage
(MID)
• The Granulocytes concentration in absolute number and per-
centage
(GRAN)
• The Red Cell Distribution Width (Absolute) (RDWa)
