Blood cells go through the laser area after twice acceleration. Under the effect of laser beam, the scattered light
is related to cell size, refractive index of cell membrane and cell internal structure. Low-angle forward
scattered light reflects the size of cell. High-angle forward scattered light reflects the internal fine structure and
particulate matter. Photodiode receive the scattered light signals and translate them into electrical pulses,
according to the electrical pulses, two-dimension map (scattergram) of cell size and cell internal information
can be obtained. The abscissa reflects the cell's internal structure. The vertical axis reflects the cell size, as
shown in Figure 1-4-8:

1.4.3.2 WBC Number/Basophil—Impedance Method
WBC number and basophils are counted through impedance method. The aspirated sample is dispensed into
test unit after diluted by quantitative conducting solution. The testing unit has a test aperture. A pair of positive
and negative electrodes exists beside the aperture for connecting the constant current power supply. As the
cells have the characteristic of a poor conductor, when the cell goes through the aperture under constant
negative pressure, the DC resistance between the electrodes will change, resulting in the formation of a pulse
signal which is proportional to the cell size. A series of electrical pulse is produced when the cell continuously
go through the aperture. The number of pulses is equivalent to the cell number through the aperture. The pulse
amplitude is proportional to the cell size.

1.4.5 Hemoglobin Concentration Testing— Colorimetry


SLS-hemoglobin method is the method combining cationic surfactant and hemoglobin. It is characterized by
high hemoglobin conversion speed and no toxic substance, applicable to automatic testing instrument.
SLS-hemoglobin method is needed in hemoglobin concentration testing. In colorimetry pool, the diluted
sample is mixed with lyse, RBC dissolve, releasing hemoglobin. Hemoglobin combined with lyse to form
hemoglobin complex. At one end of the colorimetry pool, the hemoglobin complex is irradiated by
monochromatic light with a wavelength of 540nm (LED light tube). Phototube is used at the other end to
receive transmission light, and convert the light signal into voltage signal. By comparing with the voltage
produced by background transmission light intensity before sample adding(only diluent exists), the
hemoglobin concentration can be obtained(HGB), unit is g/L.

5.3 X-B QC
X-B floating average method is proposed by Dr. Brian Bull. It monitors instrument performance through
monitoring stability of red blood cell parameters, such as MCV, MCH, MCHC, etc. It belongs to the quality
control without control. Together with the quality control with control, they all belong to instrument
performance monitoring method which can reflect instrument performance from different aspects. They are not
mutually replaceable. The X-B quality control is recommended when the daily sample is greater than 100 per
day. This quality control method requires the use of random sample; therefore, the classified sample is not
suitable. It offers the upper and lower limit to form a reference range. Observe the changing trend of result
within the reference range.
This instrument conducts X-B QC toward MCV, MCH, and MCHC. The sample number in each group can be
set as 20-200. The sample is come from normal counting result of the instrument, without classifying whole
blood and pre-dilution mode.
Calibration is needed before testing, because X-B reference value is obtained through analyzing a large
number of random samples.

8.1 Maintenance Guide


8.1.1 Regular Maintenance
(1)Daily:
QC should be conducted before daily analyzing. Refer to chapter 5 for QC operation.

If the instrument is on a 24-hour run, users should conduct “Rinse Instrument” daily. Click the key
in the shortcut key area of the main interface to conduct the rinse operation. Or users can set the numbers of
automatic rinse intervals in “Setting”: 10-200. When a certain number of tests have been conducted, the
instrument will rinse itself automatically.
If the instrument is on for 24 hours, daily “WBC Pool Rinsing”, “RBC Pool Rinsing”, “DIFF Pool Rinsing”
operation should be conducted(service-maintenance-rinsing).
(2)Every week:
If normal shutdown operation is conducted every day, “Detergent Soaking”(WBC Pool, RBC Pool, DIFF
Pool)should be conducted every week.(service-maintenance).
(3)Every month:
Swab rinsing should be conducted each month if daily shutdown is conducted(Service-Maintenance-Rinsing).

For the first use of the 10mL detergent, take the 10mL detergent bottle out of the package, open the
cover, take out the rubber plug and pour 5mL -10mL detergent (about half a bottle of detergent) from
the 500mL detergent bottle to the 10mL detergent bottle. Then open the front door of the instrument,
put the 10mL detergent bottle in the reagent bottle slot which is in the middle of the counting unit (with
black cover). For the continuous use, when changing 500mL detergent, the 10mL detergent also needs to
be changed in accordance with the above steps.
8.1.2 Maintenance in Need
If the counting pool has been contaminated, conduct “Counting Pool Rinsing”.
When the instrument has not been used for 2 weeks or more, replace the reagent with distilled water, conduct

AppendixA Network Communication Interface Protocol V1.1


This protocol is used for information transmission between BF Series Automatic Hematology Analyzer
(Model: BF-6500) and LIS. It is based on HL7 standard, HL7 version is 2.4.
A.1 Terms
MSH: each MSH head part is used for defining message purpose and aim, each message is made up by several
message segments. The first segment in each MSH is always the message head segment. It indicates the
sending and receiving program name and message type, and only message ID code, and following segment
structure is decided by message type. For example, a sample message send by OBR segment, one test result
information send by many OBX segment.
Segment: each message segment is made up by several group of date fields, each message segment has name,
and it is used for bounding the content or function. Such as Message Header (MSH), patient information (PID),
case history (PV1)
Field: segment made by several date field. Different date field are separated by list separator.
Syntax Format
<SB>dddd <EB><CR>
<SB>: message start symbol (1byte). ASCII character<VT>, namely, 0x0B.
dddd: data(made up by different length bytes). This is the HL7data content. Data could contain any byte value
and ASCII code’s carriage return symbol greater than hex value 0x1F ,<CR>.
<EB>: message end character(1 byte). ASCII character <FS>, namely, `0x1C.
<CR>: carriage return (1 byte). ASCII character<CR>, namely, 0x0D.
Example:
<SB> MSH|^~\&|LIS|1234567890|||20100427194802||ORU^R01|1|P^S|2.4| <CR>
<EB><CR>
There into:
5 character after MSH are list separators used to differentiate each field, discreteness and sub-discreteness.
Although those character could be any non-text character, but HL7 standard recommend following characters:
Delimiter Value
Field Separator |
Discreteness Separator ^
Sub-Discreteness Separator &
Repeat Separator ~
ESC \

A.2 Message Segment Used in this Protocol


(1)MSH-message head
(2)PID-patient information
(3)PV1-case history
(4)OBR-test report information
(5)OBX-test report test information
(6)EQU –instrument detail
(7)NDS - instrument affiche detail
A.3 HL7 Attribute Table
Message segment in the protocol could be divided into required, optional, and repeatable.

If this option is canceled, and all margin set to be 0, then the margin will be automatically set to the selected
printer's maximum print area. When designed report switch from one printer to other printer (the printable area
of ink jet printer is smaller than that of stylus printer), this function very useful.
If the margin set to be non 0, margins will be reflected in a page from of the designer (marked with gray lines).
If you use a dot matrix printer, first preview whether the print content is within the print area (some stylus
printer will not print the content beyond printing scope, and other printer prompts the beyond print scope). In
this case, set the margins manually.
B.2.4 Other
Click “Margin” in Figure B.4, as Figure B.7 shows:

Figure B.7
Set the number of columns and column spacing according to the page width. If the “print to front page” option
