摘要:
Methods of using a reference control composition containing a nucleated red blood cell component for measurement of nucleated red blood cells are disclosed. The nucleated red blood cell component is made of stabilized or processed nucleated blood cells which have impedance and optical properties simulating the impedance and optical properties of human nucleated red blood cells under a blood lysing condition as measured by a specific measurement. The methods include mixing the reference control composition with a lytic reagent, and analyzing the control sample mixture on a flow cytometric instrument by impedance, impedance and optical measurement, or DC impedance and a multi-dimensional measurement of light scatter, radio frequency and a second DC impedance; and reporting the simulated nucleated red blood cells in the reference control composition.

A hematology reference control containing an immature granulocyte component and the method of making are disclosed. The reference control includes an immature granulocyte component made of processed blood cells for simulating human immature granulocytes, and a suspension medium suitable for delivering the component to a blood analyzer for measurement of immature granulocytes. The immature granulocyte component can be made of processed avian, reptile or fish red blood cells, or human immature granulocytes produced in vitro. The reference control further includes a white blood cell component which includes white blood cell sub-components for simulating white blood subpopulations. Further disclosed is the method of using the reference control for measurement of immature granulocytes on a blood analyzer.
摘要:
A method of making a reference control containing a nucleated red blood cell component includes providing a blood cell containing a nucleus; treating the blood cell with a treatment solution to alter a nucleus property from a natural value to a target value suitable for simulating nucleated red blood cells on a blood analyzer; and suspending treated blood cell in a suspension medium to form a reference control. The method also includes integrating the nucleated red blood cell component with white blood cell, red blood cell, platelet and reticulocyte components. Further disclosed is a cell treatment composition for altering a nucleus property, which includes a conditioning component, a lytic component for permeating cell membrane, and a fixing component for preserving the cell nucleus. Also disclosed is a method of using the reference control for measurement of nucleated red blood cells on a blood analyzer.
