The ADVIA 120 Hematology System provides a CBC, six-part differential and fully automated reticulocyte analysis, designed to streamline laboratory workflow and achieve long-term economic benefits. The fixed throughput of CBC/Diff at 120 samples per hour, even on leukopenic samples, provides fast results reporting to enhance service to clinicians. Peroxidase staining makes the difference in WBC identification, facilitating detection of abnormalities and differentiation of leukemias. Achieve sensitive detection of red cell abnormalities without expensive and time-consuming manual tests, and differentiate microcytic anemias (thalassemia, iron deficiency) and macrocytic anemias (hereditary spherocytosis, sickle cell) with the RBC and reticulocyte technology. Expanded linearity ranges enable maximimum effectiveness of costly platelet transfusions with accurate results, even at very low platelet levels. To complement the ADVIA 120, this hematology product portfolio includes the ADVIA 70, ADVIA S60 and ADVIA 60 to meet specific laboratory needs.Advia 120
