1.12 Accuracy
1.12.1 Blood Cell Count (WBC, RBC)
When more than 100 fresh blood samples are measured after calibrating the instrument, the
average of these samples comparing to the same samples which run on the standard
instrument should be in range of Appendix 1.

1.31.2 Definitions
Body Fluid: The fluid flowing in the biological body
In an expanded sense, blood, lymph fluid, and urine are parts of the body fluid,
however, body fluid means coelomic fluid in sample tests. The body fluid includes
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), pleural effusion (PE), abdominal dropsy, fluid of the
joint and others.
Total Nucleated Cell Number (TNC): Nucleated cell numbers included in the body fluid
sample, White blood cells, mesothelial cells, blood plasma cells, histiocyte,
neoplastic cells and other nucleated cells are included in the body fluid.

advance and/or mixing. Checking the reproducibility by simulated samples created with
diluted human blood or diluted control blood.

The carryover rate using artificial samples is as follows. (Adjusting WBC-BF and TC-BF to
100.00 x 102/µL, adjusting RBC-BF to 500.0 x 104/µL)
• WBC-BF: 0.3% or 0.01 x 102/µL or lower
