Evaluation of the nucleated red blood cell count in neonates using the Beckman Coulter UniCel DxH 800 analyzer

Abstract

The results obtained indicate the UniCel DxH 800 to be an excellent test on neonatal blood and superior to the other analyzers. Therefore, the DxH 800 is an effective and highly sensitive system for the analysis of NRBCs on newborns.

Evaluation of the acceptable measurement range of nucleated red blood cell on Beckman Coulter UniCel DxH 800 analyser

“…As the most common traditional technique, NRBC values from the OM were compared with those from the DxH. NRBC counts from DxH 800 were highly correlated with OM (r 2 = .97) which agrees with Kwon et al 7 The…”

“…The objective of our study was to identify the reli- Moreover, the traditional method can be time consuming increasing labour costs and delaying prognosis. 5,7 Consequently, manufacturers have explored advanced methods to detect and measure NRBCs in their automated haematology analysers; therefore, several evaluation [3][4][5][6]8 and comparison studies 7,9-11 have followed. Previous study by Kwon et al 7 displayed remarkable linearity and correlation of NRBC measurement between the DxH and OM.…”

Fetal Erythroblastosis May Be an Indicator of Neonatal Transient Hyperinsulinism

“…Their absolute nucleated red blood cell (aNRBC) count was evaluated by smear microscopy and a UniCel DxH800 analyzer (Beckman Coulter Inc., Fullerton, Calif., USA), an effective and highly sensitive system for analyzing aNRBC in newborns [10]. Blood glucose levels were checked with a standard bedside sensor (FreeStyle™; Nipro Corp., Osaka, Japan) at least 4 times during the first 24 h, and intravenous glucose infusion was initiated and regulated to maintain a blood glucose level of 60-120 mg/dl.…”

Conteggio degli eritroblasti con ADVIA2120i in soggetti affetti da talassemia, drepanocitosi e nei neonati

“…Gli eritroblasti (NRBC) sono i precursori delle emazie normalmente confinati nel midollo osseo. La loro presenza nel sangue periferico (SP) è segno di un'aumentata o alterata attività eritropoietica (eritropoiesi inefficace e/o associata a stress ipossico) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9].…”
