WBC Diff System
WBC Diff System
The WBC DIFF is the latest technological innovation from HemoCue, a new point-of-care system that provides a quantitative determination of white blood cells with a five part differential count including:
- Leukocytes (White Blood Cells)
- Neutrophils
- Lymphocytes
- Monocytes
- Eosinophils
- Basophils
The advanced technology in the WBC DIFF is based on techniques known from manual microscope counting; it just simplifies, downs sizes and speeds up the process.
The system requires only a drop of blood - 10µL – from a finger stick or venous sample. In the microcuvette, red cells are lysed by an haemolysing agent and white cells are stained by methylene blue. The camera in the analyser takes 37 images throughout the cuvette, and the cells are counted by image analysis and classified into each subgroup. A lab accurate result is achieved within less than five minutes.
