DxH 900 Hematology Analyzer

QUALITY RESULTS AND LABORATORY EFFICIENCY

THROUGH COMPREHENSIVE BODY-FLUID ANALYSIS
Achieve quality results and workflow efficiency

Save time and improve laboratory workflow through body-fluid technology

that allows fewer serial dilutions for less variability, with sample-integrity
monitoring to minimize risk of spurious results. The DxH 900 hematology
analyzer offers a Body Fluids (BF) mode that provides analysis of all BF
samples, producing high-quality results with high linearity while adding
efficiencies to laboratory processes. The system also offers compliance
with Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) reporting
recommendations and strengthens confidence in QA procedures with
three levels of BF controls.

With comprehensive body-fluids analysis available with the DxH 900 analyzer,
laboratories gain:

› Improved workflow and fast laboratory turnaround time

› Added analytical value for clinical decision making
› A quality assurance program which enables high confidence in results
› Compliance with CLSI reporting recommendations

Improved workflow and fast laboratory turnaround time

› Fewer serial dilutions

The DxH BF mode provides reliable high-end linearity compared to other available
technologies,1 which significantly improves workflow, minimizes the need for laborious
serial dilutions and increases the quality of results by reducing variability that stems from
manual dilution processes and the related calculations.2

› Comprehensive BF analysis
The DxH 900 is capable of analyzing BF samples without any manual sample preparation.

› User-friendly software
Intuitive software with universally recognizable icons is easy to learn and use for the
laboratory technologist.
 QUALITY RESULTS AND LABORATORY EFFICIENCY THROUGH
COMPREHENSIVE BODY FLUID ANALYSIS

Added analytical value for clinical decision making

› Sample-integrity monitoring
The DxH 900 uses blood detectors on all samples, minimizing the risk for spurious results linked
to air bubbles and partial aspiration.
› Capability for detecting minor bleeds
Sufficient sensitivity in BF mode to detect small amounts of blood due to minor bleeding.3
› Research Use Only capabilities
The DxH 900 provides the percent and number of mononuclear and polymorphonuclear cells
that have potential to provide additional information for manual reviews.*

A quality assurance program which enables high confidence in results

› Reliable BF results
The DxH 900’s quality assurance procedures include three levels of BF controls, strengthening
confidence in results.
› Environmentally friendly system
The DxH 900 uses methanol-free and ethylene glycol-free reagents, thereby reducing
environmental impact and disposal costs.

Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute compliance

› CLSI recommends reporting Total Nucleated Cells (TNC) in BF

Body fluids can contain not only leukocytes, but also other nucleated cells, such as mesothelial
cells and pneumocytes. The DxH 900 system is compliant with the CLSI reporting
recommendations by providing the cell-count parameter as total nucleated cells (TNC)
instead of white blood cells (WBC).

The DxH 900 hematology analyzer: The right results, the first time

The DxH 900 empowers hematology decisions through near native-state cellular characterization,
ensures predictable costs through a 93% first-pass yield4 and maximizes staff time.
