Four-part differential leukocyte count using μflow cytometer

Abstract

This paper reports the four-part differential leukocyte count (DLC) of human blood using a MEMS microflow (μflow) cytometer. It is achieved with a two-color laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection scheme. Four types of leukocytes including neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes and monocytes are identified in blood samples, which are stained by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) and propidium iodide (PI). The DLC results show good correlation with the count from a commercial hematology analyzer. The whole system is also implemented into a portable instrument for space application.
