Cytochemical Reactions

The RBC/Platelet cytochemical reactions consist of two steps:
Step 1
Step 2
ADVIA 2120/2120i RBC / PLT
NOTE:
RBC / PLT reagent, please see Chapter 8.
ADVIA 2120/2120i RBC/PLT reagent contains sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)
and glutaraldehyde, which causes sphering of the red blood cells and platelets.
When red cells and platelets are isovolumetrically sphered, shape is eliminated as
a variability factor.
Methods
RBCs and platelets are isovolumetrically sphered using the ADVIA
2120/2120i RBC/PLT reagent.
RBCs and platelets are fixed.
