Glocyte
GloCyte is an automated cell counter that delivers accurate and precise total nucleated cell (TNC) and red blood cell (RBC) results at clinically relevant low levels, reducing valuable time spent counting those more difficult specimens. Using a novel combination of fluorescence technology, highly specific reagents, and an intelligent counting algorithm, GloCyte can handle all of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens that enter your laboratory. There’s never been a CSF analyzer like this.
GloCyte gives hematology labs a reliable and efficient method for automating analysis of all CSF specimens, improving results consistency and turnaround time, compared to the manual hemocytometer method.
Product features:
- GloCyte puts your mind at ease by calculating TNC and RBC results for you in cells/µL
- Quick assay procedure generates results with only 30 µL of sample per test
- GloCyte uses disposable test cartridges
- The analyzer’s small footprint makes the most of every inch of valuable lab space
- GloCyte is easy to operate
- Quality control features include Levey-Jennings charts, password protection, and an audit table
- GloCyte software interfaces with LIS
- Data is easily exported for statistical analysis
