New system for haematology analysis
Wednesday, 25 April, 2007
Beckman Coulter has released the Coulter range of LH 780 haematology systems - top-of-the-line analysers that incorporate advancements to the company's proprietary VCS (volume, conductivity and scatter) technology for high sensitivity, specificity and efficiency in WBC differential analysis.
The LH 780 offers new parameters including RDW-SD, which measures deviation of the width of the red cell population for applications such as anaemia studies. Additional new tools enhance the study of cellular abnormalities.
The LH 780 software includes new quality control features that give users broader flexibility. The new XM quality control package provides exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) of CBC, 5-part differential, NRBC and reticulocyte parameters. XM also provides the flexibility to process up to 20 batches of two to 1,000 runs. The Extended QC Rules package offers three new filters for measurement of total error, imprecision and bias on any file.
The LH 780 can be configured to include an LH SlideMaker and LH SlideStainer, for automated slide preparation. The new LH 780 analyzers can also be incorporated into Beckman Coulter's LH 1500 automated core systems for ultra high-volume labs.
