reticONETM SYSTEM: Fully Automated Reticulocyte Enumeration

The new reticONE SYSTEM is an innovative software/reagent methodology for counting reticulocytes in whole blood. The reticONE SYSTEM was developed for the XL with SYSTEM II Software and is compatible with walkaway sample loading on the MCL. Instrument calibration as well as gating and analysis are done automatically, resulting in increased efficiency and speed.

The reticONE Reagent Kit includes Retic-CALTM Biological Calibrator for automated instrument standardization. Retic-STATTM  Cloriphosphine-O is a metachromatic dye that allows interfering substances, such as white blood cells and platelets, to be excluded from the reticulocyte calculation.

This easy-to-use module provides high throughput of more than 60 samples per hour and does not require a control to be run with each patient.

Dual Color HLA-B27 Detection

Traditionally, HLA-B27 typing was performed by microlymphotoxicity testing-- a method taking a minimum of three hours to complete.

Now, investigators can detect the HLA-B27 antigen quickly and inexpensively using dual-color flow cytometry and Immunotech's HLA-B27-FITC/HLA-B7-PE reagent.

 Superior DNA Content Analysis

Coulter offers the most complete DNA content analysis system, consisting of the EPICS XL with SYSTEM II Software, the DNA-Prep Reagent System, MULTICYCLE® AV Software and COULTER INDEX DNA Controls.

The DNA-Prep Reagent System provides fast standardized sample preparation. The popular MULTICYCLE AV software gives users powerful analysis capabilities in DOS, WindowsTM  or MacTM environments. INDEX DNA Controls are the first assayed controls for DNA analysis by flow cytometry. INDEX is a unique set of normal and abnormal human cells for daily verification of sample staining, instrument performance and software analysis. Included with INDEX is a complete assay and free participation in Coulter's Interlaboratory Quality Assurance Program (IQAP).

DNA cell cycle graph

MULTICYCLE AV is an easy to use, versatile DNA cell cycle analysis program from Phoenix Flow Systems. It features automatic fitting of 6 different cell cycle models.
