摘要:
A reagent for partially lysing a cell membrane of a red blood cell infected with a malaria parasite, comprising: a first surfactant which has predetermined lysing ability for the red blood cell membrane; and a second surfactant which has weaker lysing ability than that of the first surfactant; wherein the reagent has pH of 5 to 7 and osmotic pressure of 200 to 300 mOsm/kg·H2O; and wherein the reagent partially lyses the malaria infected red blood cell membrane such that a malaria parasite is retained in the red blood cell and fluorescent dye passes through the cell membrane, is disclosed. A reagent for detecting malaria infected red blood cells, and a sample analyzing method for detecting malaria infected red blood cells, are also disclosed.
摘要:
This blood analyzer includes a sample preparation portion preparing a measurement sample free from a labeling substance from a blood sample and a hemolytic agent free from a labeling substance, a light information generation portion generating fluorescent information and at least two types of scattered light information from the measurement sample and a control portion performing a first classification of white blood cells in the measurement sample into at least four groups of monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils and others on the basis of the fluorescent information and the two types of scattered light information.

摘要:
A blood analyzing method is described that includes steps of: preparing a measurement sample by hemolyzing red blood cells in a blood specimen, the measurement sample containing particles; irradiating a light on the measurement sample to detect two or more types of optical information reflecting characters of the particles in the measurement sample, thereby acquiring data indicating light intensities of the respective optical information as a particle data associated with each of the particles; counting white blood cells based on the particle data; outputting the result of counting white blood cells; determining whether malarial parasites are present or not based on the particle data; and outputting the result of determining. A blood analyzer also described.
