Description
Rapid Results
The XS-1000i provides rapid, reliable test results from just 20µL of sample to assist the physician in patient diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring. It utilizes the same diagnostic power and accuracy as the X-Series of high volume analyzers with comparable results. Now you can spend less time managing equipment and sample handling and more time on the critical analytical work in your laboratory.
Hydrodynamic Focusing (DC Detection)
Fluorescent technology and hydrodynamic focusing enable the analyzers to reliably differentiate normal WBC (white blood cell), RBC (red blood cell), and PLT (platelet) populations from abnormal populations, thereby decreasing the number of manual interventions.
WBC DIFF Detection
Fluorescent Flow Cytometry Yields Optimized Productivity The Sysmex XS-1000i Automated Hematology System utilizes the power of Fluorescent Flow Cytometry and Hydrodynamic Focusing technologies. Using a unique, stable, avalanche photodiode with a laser bench, Sysmex Fluorescent Flow Cytometry provides the sensitivity needed for measuring and differentiating cell types in whole blood.
RBCs and PLTs
RBCs and PLTs are counted in a dedicated channel using Impedance or Direct Current (DC) detection method combined with hydrodynamic focusing technology. Challenges to cell counting such as coincidence or recirculation are circumvented and automatic discriminators separate the two cell populations. Even with samples at extremely low or unusually high concentrations, the Sysmex system analyzes RBCs and PLTs with uncompromised precision and accuracy.
High Quality Hemoglobin (HGB) Analysis
The XS-1000i utilizes the cyanide-free reagent, Sodium Laurel Sulfate (SLS). The end product is a colored compound that is measured spectrophotometrically. Since hemoglobin determinations are performed from a dilution and in its own separate chamber, there is no interference from high WBC counts, lipemia or abnormal proteins.
Direct Hematocrit (HCT) Measurement
The cumulative pulse heights of all the RBC counts yield the HCT. This is based on the principle that the pulse height (voltage change) produced by cells passing through the aperture is proportional to cell volume. Conversion to SLS-Hgb Adaptive Cluster Analysis System (ACAS)
WBC a Clear Differentiation
The combination of side scatter (cell complexity), forward scatter (size) of nucleated cells provides a concise and precise image of each detected peripheral blood cell. This 3-dimensional blood cell analysis provides unique accuracy and precision. Fluorescence labeling of peripheral blood cells is a milestone for the routine leukocyte differential. Fluorescent technology enables the XS-1000i to reliably differentiate normal WBC populations from abnormal WBC populations. The sensitivity of the unique application of fluorescent flow cytometry gives the lab a high level of confidence in reporting accurate WBC differentials, even on critical patient samples when the WBC count is low.
