Assays

Technology
Laser light scatter technology for 5-part WBC differential
Impedance method for CBC
Light absorbance for HGB measurement

Parameters
26 parameters, including 5-part differential with two histograms and scattergrams for RBC and PLT: BASO, WBC, LYM, MON, NEU, EOS, BAS, LYM%, MON%, NEU%, EOS%, BAS%, RBC, HCT, MCV, RDW-SD,^† RDW-CV, HGB, MCH, MCHC, PLT, PCT,^† MPV, PDW-SD,^† PDW-CV,^† P-LCC,^† P-LCR^†

Sample Stability
Sample stability is characterized by the absolute and percent difference from the baseline values measured 30 minutes after venipuncture for WBC, NEU%, NEU, LYM%, LYM, MON%, MON, EOS%, EOS, BAS%, BAS, RBC, RDW, and PLT. For MPV, the baseline is 2 hours after venipuncture. The expected stability is 7 hours from venipuncture.

Reagents
Three cyanide-free reagents (Diluent, Lyse, and Cleaner)
