Sistema de prueba TBNK de Sysmex

Lymphocyte subset testing

Flow cytometric immunophenotyping to evaluate the percentages and absolute counts of lymphocyte subsets is a well-established test that is performed in a variety of settings. It is primarily used for monitoring CD3+CD4+ T cells in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals, and also in the evaluation of other forms of immune deficiency and autoimmune diseases [1-4].

Unique features of the Sysmex TBNK test system

The Sysmex TBNK test system on the XF-1600 platform provides accurate counts directly from the flow cytometer, without the need for counting beads. This is made possible by the volumetric count capability of the XF-1600 based on a calibrated syringe-driven acquisition of exact sample volume for accurate white blood cell (WBC) count – technology that is inherited from Sysmex’s XN-Series haematology analysers.

The resulting absolute counts are metrologically traceable to an internationally recognised reference method for white blood cells (WBC) [5].

Características

Your benefits in routine

  • The standardisation and convenience afforded by a preconfigured solution:
  • The assurance of reliability through built-in quality control procedures
  • Automation options - automated sample acquisition on the XF-1600 flow cytometer and optional automated sample preparation on the PS-10 sample preparation system
  • Streamlined workflow – all steps from test request to reporting are streamlined by Sysmex digital solutions
