CAUTION
• Be sure to run the pre-diluted samples within 30 minutes after the dilution. Otherwise the
results may be unreliable.
• If there is much pre-diluted sample adhering to the tube cap or to the tube wall, the
analyzer may not be able to aspirate sufficient volume of the sample. When preparing
pre-diluted samples, slightly tap the bottom of the test tubes with a finger. There should
be no less than 100 µL of pre-diluted sample settled at the bottom of the tube.
Body fluid samples:
The subtypes of body fluid supported by the current analyzer include cerebrospinal fluid,
pleural fluid, abdominal fluid and synovial fluid.
1. Use clean EDTAK
2
or EDTAK
3
anticoagulant collection tubes (except for cerebrospinal
fluid) to collect body fluid samples.
2. Mix the sample by carefully inverting the tube 10 times.
