The
CELL-DYN 3200 is Abbott's newest, compact
automated hematology analyzer designed for the
general hematology lab. The instrument employs
dual technologies upon request to provide the
basis for a 5-Part WBC Differential. CELL-DYN's
patented Multi-Angle Polarized Scatter Separation
(M.A.P.S.S.) technology provides the
primary white blood cell count, all differential
information, and a nuclear optical count that
is used to provide additional information in
the presence of fragile lymphocytes and hypotonically
resistant red blood cells. The system also provides
optical platelet and RBC analysis along with
extended WBC and platelet linearity.
The
CELL-DYN 3200 features an automatic start-up
cycle designed to prime the flow system and
check the background counts. The analyzer also
automatically performs a shut-down cycle and
places itself in standby mode. The CELL-DYN
3200 offers both open and closed sampling options
on two instrument versions. The CELL-DYN
3200SL version includes the open mode and a
fully integrated 50 position sample loader that
can process approximately 70 samples per hour.
The CELL-DYN 3200CS version offers single,
closed tube sampling along with the open mode.
A
high speed data management system offers patient
report customization to include patient ID,
22 parameters, 6 limit sets, color cytograms,
color histograms and a manual differential transcription
grid.
