Hematology (Advia 2120)

Routine Hemogram Reference Intervals

These reference intervals were established using our Advia 2120 Hematology Analyzer. The asterixed values are obtained from the Advia. The remaining values are determined by bench methods, including the differential cell count (cells are counted in a peripheral blood smear), number of nucleated red blood cells/100 WBC, percentage and absolute reticulocyte counts (cats only), and total protein (measured by refractometer).

Hematology Bench (Manual) Percent Differential Reference Intervals

The PCV is directly measured from a microhematocrit centrifuge tube. The percent differential is determined by counting a minimum of 100 cells in stained peripheral blood smears.
