  • Page 93: Tests Using A Plasma Filter (Pf)

    4 Applicable usage methods 4.4 Tests using a plasma filter (PF) By using a PF, you can filter a plasma sample from a whole blood sample without using a centrifuge. NOTE The FDC NX700i cannot measure using a PF. IMPORTANT: Insert one (sample) PF in the sample disk. If measurements are performed on multiple samples simultaneously using PFs, the blood cells may precipitate, making it impossible to obtain sufficient plasma, and the measurement results for GPT (ALT) slides may be affected.
  • Page 94 4 Applicable usage methods PF cards (1) Overview When the measurement values for filtered plasma are compared to the values for plasma sep- arated on a centrifuge, systematic differences may be found. Always read the PF card before using a PF. The PF card contains information to compensate for these differences. (2) Using PF cards One PF card is included in one PF box (with 50 filters).
