Hematopathology / AUTOMATED METHODS FOR PERFORMING IMMATURE RETICULOCYTE FRACTION Five Fully Automated Methods for Performing Immature Reticulocyte Fraction Comparison in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Aplasia
We performed a parallel evaluation of 5 automated reticulocyte counters to produce the immature reticulocyte fraction (IRF). We analyzed 225 samples from healthy control subjects, 115 from patients with various diseases, 38 with advanced aplasia, and 22 in early erythropoietic recovery after chemotherapy or bone marrow transplantation. The reference intervals were different for each instrument ...
متن کاملFlow cytometric reticulocyte counting. Parallel evaluation of five fully automated analyzers: an NCCLS-ICSH approach.
We performed a parallel evaluation of 5 automated reticulocyte analyzers. The guidelines were those proposed by the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards and the International Council for Standardisation in Haematology. Duplicate analyses were performed for 225 healthy subjects and 115 patients affected by various diseases. The reference intervals were different for each method (...
متن کاملImmature reticulocyte fraction (IRF)--an universal marker of hemopoiesis in children with cancer?
PURPOSE Anemia is one of the most frequent side effects of anticancer treatment, it is also caused by disease itself. Reliable laboratory tests indicating hematological recovery after chemo- and radiotherapy are needed. Effective erythropoiesis can be monitored by quantitative measurement of reticulocytes. The amount of RNA in these cells can be assessed with flow cytometry and divided into low...
متن کاملComparison of a modified thiazole orange technique with a fully automated analyser for reticulocyte counting.
Two independent methods for quantitating reticulocyte counts were compared. One used a modified thiazole orange technique and a flow cytometer (Becton Dickinson FACS); the other was a fully automated whole blood analyser (Sysmex R1000). Both methods gave comparable results with a coefficient of variation of less than 5%. Samples measured using the R1000 showed a negligible decrease in the retic...
متن کاملDetermination of reference ranges for immature platelet and reticulocyte fractions and reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent
INTRODUCTION The immature platelet and immature reticulocyte fractions represent the ratios of platelets and reticulocytes recently released into the circulation and thus with higher RNA content. They are considered early indicators of bone marrow recovery. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the reference ranges for the immature platelet and reticulocyte fractions of hematologic...
