DETECTION PRINCIPL

1.6.1

Detection Principles of WBC, RBC, PLT

The count principle of the instrument is based on the measurement of changes in electrical
resistance produced by a particle passing through an aperture sensor.
a) The sample blood is diluted in a conductive liquid. As blood cells are non-conductive, the
diluent is a good conductor. There are big differences between them.
b) When the diluent passes through the aperture sensor, electrodes are submerged in the liquid on
each side of the aperture to create continuous current.
c) When cells pass through the aperture, the resistance between the electrodes increases as the
cell volume increasing, as is shown in figure 1-4.According to the Ohm Formulary: U=RI
(U=Voltage I=Current R=Resistance).If

I is a constant, U increases as the cell volume

increasing.
d) Passing through the magnification circuit, the voltage signal will be magnified and the noise
will be filtered, then you will gain the analytical results, as shown in figure 1-4.
e) One count pool and the detection circuit count the WBC. Another count pool and the detection
circuit count the RBC and PLT. The microprocessor of the instrument calculates and analyzes
the cells (WBC, RBC, PLT), and then gives out the histograms.
f)

PLT count adopts advanced liquid, electronics and software system. It settles the repetitive
count of the cells on the side of the aperture count area.

12

Instrument Introduction

Figure 1-4

1.6.2

Principles of HGB Measurement

Adding lyse in the blood, the red blood cell will rapidly be broken down and release hemoglobin.
Hemoglobin and lyse form a new mixture, which can absorb the wavelength of 540nm.Measure
the absorbency. Through the comparison of the absorbency between the pure diluent and the
samplethe concentration of the sample hemoglobin is calculated.

1.6.3

Volume Distribution of Blood Cell

When different types of cells pass through the aperture sensor, there will be different electrical
pulse height. Because of the evident difference of the cells sizes, the instrument is able to
differentiate the white blood cell, red blood cell and platelet by its pre-set program.
The volume distributions are as follows:
WBC

1201000fL

RBC

8298fL

PLT

235fL

The leucocytes disposed by lyse can be divided into three types, according to their volumes:
lymphocyte (LYM), mid-sized cell (MID), Granulocyte (GRAN).
LYM
MID

3590 fL

Results and Calculation of Parameter Measurement

The parameters of the sample blood test can be described in three ways:
a) Measured directly, such as WBC, RBC, PLT, HGB.
b) Derived from histograms, such as LYM%, MID%, GRAN%, MCV, RDW-SD,
RDW-CV, MPV, PDW, P-LCR.
c) Calculated, such as LYM#, MID#, GRAN#, HCT, MCH, MCHC, PCT.
The derivation of the formularies as follows:
z

MCV derives from histograms and the instrument collecting and classifying the
erythrocytes according to its volume. It is determined by measuring the average volume
of individual erythrocytes, and the unit is fL.

RDW represents the volume distribution of the erythrocyte populations, derived from
the RBC histogram. It can be expressed by the coefficient variation of the erythrocyte
volume as RDW-CV, and the unit is %.It can also be expressed in standard deviation of
the erythrocyte volume as RDW-SD, the unit is fL.

MPV is the average volume of individual platelets, derived from the PLT histogram. It
represents the mean volume of the PLT populations and can be expressed in fL.

PDW derives from the PLT histogram. It represents the geometry standard deviation (10
GSD) of the volume of the PLT populations.

P-LCR derives from the PLT histogram. It represents the ratio of the larger PLT and the
unit is %.

instrument.

d)

Put the air filter grid on the air filter net carefully. Planish them.

Notice:
Only can use the neutral detergent cleaning the air filter. Avoid airing it with heat.

6.5

YEARLY MAINTENANCE

Its necessary to perform preventive maintenance once every year. Because of the
highly-requirements for yearly maintenance, the maintenance should be performed by the
authorized engineer of Procan. Please contact the customer service department of Procan before
yearly maintenance.

THE

MAINTENANCE

BEFORE

TRANSPORT

OR

FOR

INSTRUMENT THAT WILL NOT BE USED FOR A LONG TIME.

If the instrument is not going to be used in 2 weeks or longer, or need to pack and transport,
performing the following procedures:
a)

In the main operation window, press the right key of the mouse, choose Service/Park

35

Maintenance
in the menu.
b)

Operate as screen shows.

c)

Rotate the bottle covers of rest reagents and store them as the reagent operation
introduction. User should perform efficient action to prevent the material from
deteriorating, mis-eating and misusing.

d)

Plug the stopples which were pulled out at the first installation into the corresponding
tube connector.

e)

Pull out diluent connection tube, rinse connection tube, lyse connection tube and waste
connection tube and clean them with distilled water. Dry them in shady place, then
packing them into plastics.

36

f)

Pull out the power wire, packing it in plastics after cleaning with neutral detergent.

g)

Put the instrument and parts packed in plastics into packing cases.

CHECKING ITEMS BEFORE MAINTENANCE

Items required for checking before maintenance:

Ambient Temperature:

1535

Temperature of the reagent: 1530

Humidity:
Atmospheric Pressure:

1090%
86.0kPa106.0kPa

If the temperature is below 15,the activity of the reagent will reduce. It will weaken the capacity
of dissolving the blood. In a certain time, it can not break down the red blood cell membranes into
2fl cellular debris. At lower temperature conditions, the red blood cell debris will gather together.
It will affect the measurement of leukocyte, resulting in the count value of WBC increasing .It will
also affect the measurement of HGB, resulting in the count value of HGB increasing.
Checking for Sample Blood
Sample Collection: Observe whether the operator uses correct method to collect the blood
(Operating as PE-6800 FULLY AUTO HEMATOLOGY ANALYZER OPERATION MANUAL
/Chapter 3/Section 3.5 Preparation For Sample Collection), and whether the sample is stored in
the container filling with EDTA.K2O.H2O anticoagulant.
Sample Storage: After the sample blood is well-mixed, test on the instrument promptly. As time
goes by, the volume and density of the cells will change. The environment and the patient
determine the varying rate of the volume and density. If the sample is placed a long time at room
temperature, the volume of RBC will increase, and the MCV, RDW, PDW will be affected, and the
PLT will easily gather together.
Affection of WBC Classification: To get the exact measuring results, the venous blood sample
measurement must be completed within 4 hours. If the sample blood is placed a long time at room
temperature, the total number of WBC may change little, but the classification is inaccurate.

7.3

BACKGROUND CHECK

Background Check: This item can ensure the measurement and the calculated data wont be
affected by reagent empty. If the background value exceeds the permissive area, the measured and
calculated data will be inaccurate.

Background Test Method: When power-on, suggested to run background test, you can also
execute background test as you need.
The operation steps are as follows:
a)

In the blood cell analyzer window, press Info button, and pops up the information
edit window. Then click the item textbox, change the ID as 999999999.then press
OK, return to blood cell analyzer window.

b)

Background count in venous or capillary mode, press the START key below the
sample needle directly for background count. In prediluted mode, the sample needle
aspirates some non-contaminated diluent from the chamber for background count.
The diluent pick-up method as follows(Analyzing the sample in prediluted mode, it
is also necessary to dilute sample with the diluent which is prior picked-up in this
method):

In main operation area, press the right key of the mouse, pops up the menu. In menu operation
area, select Sample Mode/ Prediluted to set the sample mode as prediluted mode.
In main operation area, press the right key of the mouse, pops up the menu. In the menu operation
area, select Diluent. Place a clean empty chamber or tube under the sample needle, press
START key to dispense the diluent into the chamber. Press the START key once, the diluent
is dispensed into the chamber or tube once (The quantity can be used for background count in the
second prediluted mode).
Press Exit button to return to the main operation area.
Affected Factors of Background:

The reagent is dirty.

The chamber is dirty.
