Sysmex公司推出X系列产品使用检测血小板分数的软件

 
一种专业软件程序被设计用于辅助血小板和红细胞数量改变的诊断和治疗。

比较特别的是，这种软件被设计用于在Sysmex集团公司(Kobe, Japan; www.sysmex.co.jp)XE-2100血液学分析仪中，检测未成熟血小板分数(IPF)、网状细胞血红蛋白当量(RET-He)。在X系列产品所有这些细胞都暴露于对核酸有亲和力的荧光染料。

Sysmex美洲公司医疗主任Ian Giles说：“未成熟血小板分数是血栓形成的指标，通过区分骨髓功能障碍和外周血小板消耗或者破坏，能够鉴定血小板减少症的起源。”

RET-He指标能够在程序中直接测定平均网状细胞血红蛋白含量。因此这是早期诊断铁缺乏的有用指标，并可以指导制定铁剂治疗的最佳方案。

Sysmex美洲公司产品经理Peggy Barranco说：“推出为XE-2100设计的新软件意味着Sysmex公司致力于改进XE-2100荧光流式细胞仪的工艺。”Sysmex XE-2100已经在全球超过6,000家实验室中得以广泛应用。

Software Measures Platelet Fraction
 
Specialized master software programs are designed to assist with the diagnosis and treatment of altered platelet and red-cell production.

More specifically, the software is designed to measure immature platelet fraction (IPF) and reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent (RET-He) on the XE-2100 hematology analyzers of Sysmex Corp. (Kobe, Japan; www.sysmex.co.jp). All of the cells sampled on the X-series of instruments are exposed to fluorescent dyes with affinity for nucleic acids.

“The Immature Platelet Fraction is an index of thrombopoiesis,” said Ian Giles, M.D., medical director, Sysmex America. “It can determine the origin of thrombocytopenia by helping to distinguish between bone marrow failure and peripheral platelet consumption or destruction.”

The RET-He parameter provides a direct measurement for the mean reticulocyte hemoglobin content in picograms. It is therefore a useful parameter for the early diagnosis of iron deficiency (iron restricted erthropoiesis) and for optimizing iron therapy.

“Release of the new master software programs for the XE-2100 indicates Sysmex’s commitment to our ongoing improvement of XE-2100 fluorescent flow cytometry technology,” said Peggy Barranco, product manager, Sysmex America. The Sysmex XE-2100 is now in more than 6,000 laboratories worldwide.
