Once the WBC count is determined, the absolute number of cells in each
subpopulation is calculated by multiplying that WBC count by the
percentage. The results are expressed as follows:
WBC # x 10
3
/µL
NEU # x 10
3
/µL and %
LYM # x 10

/µL and %
MONO
# x 10

/µL and %
EOS # x 10

/µL and %
BASO # x 10

/µL and %
The WBC subpopulations are further identified by the following colors:
Neutrophils — yellow
Lymphocytes — blue
Monocytes — magenta
Eosinophils — green
Basophils — white
information is usually displayed in two scatterplots as
SIZE/COMPLEXITY: The size (0
°
scatter) information is plotted
on the Y axis and the complexity (10
°
scatter) information is plotted on the X
axis.
DEPOL/ORTHOGONAL: The granularity (Depol 90
°
D scatter)
information is plotted on the Y axis and the
lobularity (Orthogonal 90
°
scatter)
information is plotted on the
X axis.
