6-GLOSSARY
GLOSSARY
Quality Control (QC)
- A comprehensive set of procedures your laboratory sets up to ensure
that the instrument is working accurately and precisely.
REF. VALUES
- Reference values for CBC calibration. You find these on the calibrator package
insert and enter them on the CBC calibration screen.
Reproducibility
- This procedure checks that the system gives similar results (within
established limits) every time it measures the same sample. It is also called precision.
Scatter
- Light scatter analysis.
Scatterplot
- A two-dimensional display of three-dimensional white cell data.
SD (Standard Deviation)
- A measurement of deviation from the mean.
Secondary Mode
- In the instrument, the open-vial mode of sampling.
Shift
- Consecutive values that abruptly move and maintain a constant level.
Solenoid
- An electronically controlled valve that routes vacuum, pressure, air or liquids.
Standard Deviation (SD)
- A measurement of deviation from the mean.
Stop Bit
- A computer code that indicates the end of a character.
Suspect Flags
- Messages generated by the instrument algorithm to denote abnormal WBC,
RBC, and/or Plt populations.
Sweep Flow
- A steady stream of diluent that flows behind the RBC aperture during sensing
periods to keep RBCs from swirling back into the sensing zone and becoming incorrectly
sensed as platelets.
Time-out
- After a predetermined time of no operator input, the instrument reverts to a
waiting state (the compressor turns off and the DMS screen blanks). If input to a prompt is
not received in a predetermined amount of time, a time-out occurs and the system displays
SELECT FUNCTION
.
Trend
- Values that continue to increase or decrease gradually over a period of time (five or
more consecutive values).
TTM
- Triple Transducer Module, the module that contains the laser and makes the diff
measurements.
µL
- Microliter, a unit of volumetric measurement.
UL
- Underwriters Laboratory.
µm
- Micrometer, a unit of linear measurement.
V
- Volt, a unit of electrical potential.
Vac
- Volts of alternating current.
