CELL-DYN Sapphire System RETICULOCYTE REAGENT

CELL-DYN RETICULOCYTE REAGENT

In 1949, Dr. George Brecher developed a stain called new methylene blue to identify immature erythrocytes (reticulocytes) based upon aggregations of RNA within disintegrating ribosomes. This RNA is at its highest level immediately after enucleation of the cell and continues to decrease until its complete absence in the fully mature erythrocyte. Reticulocytes are so named due to their mesh-like (reticular) network of ribosomal RNA which, after staining, is readily visible with a blue granulofilamentous appearance. The quantitative evaluation of reticulocytes in peripheral blood is an important test used in the assessment of erythropoiesis, bone marrow function, and anemia typing.

UF-Fluorocell CR is used to mark white blood cells, epithelial cells and bacteria, etc. in urine or in body fluids for determination of their counts with Sysmex fully automated urine particle analyzers.UF-Fluorocell CR is intended for use only in conjunction with Sysmex diluent UF-CELLPACK CR.

UF-Fluorocell SF is used to mark formed elements in urine or in body fluids for determination of red blood cells, casts, etc. counts with the Sysmex fully automated urine particle analyzers. UF-Fluorocell SF is intended for use only in conjunction with Sysmex diluent UF-CELLPACK SF.
