Abstract:
A blood analyzer according to one or more embodiments may include: a specimen preparation part that prepares a measurement specimen by mixing a reagent into a blood preparation; a measurement part that measures the measurement specimen; a measurement mode selection unit that receives an input of a type of blood preparation as a measurement target selected from a plurality of types of blood preparations; and a controller. The controller may cause the specimen preparation part to prepare the measurement specimen depending on the selected type of blood preparation.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a blood analyzer including a specimen preparation unit that prepares a measurement specimen by mixing a hemolytic agent that hemolyzes red blood cells, a staining dye that dyes nucleic acids, and a blood specimen; a detector that detects intensity of side scattered light and intensity of fluorescence generated with application of light from the measurement specimen prepared by the specimen preparation unit; and an analysis unit that discriminates white blood cells from giant platelets based on the intensity of side scattered light and the intensity of fluorescence detected by the detector, and counts the white blood cells.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an analysis method for analyzing an analyte in a specimen, the analysis method including: obtaining first data corresponding to an optical signal obtained from the analyte; inputting set data composed of a plurality of pieces of the first data, to an artificial intelligence algorithm capable of calculating a relevance degree between the pieces of the first data; and determining a type of the analyte by using the relevance degree.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method for displaying a result of analysis performed on a specimen containing formed components. The method includes: obtaining, from each of the formed components, measurement values of at least three parameters; displaying a screen including a three-dimensional distribution chart in which the three parameters are used as axes and the formed components are represented by dots; and hiding specific dots on the three-dimensional distribution chart or changing a display format of the specific dots, according to an operation performed by a user.
Abstract:
A measurement method, a measurement device, and a measurement program for acquiring information related to lipid particles contained in a measurement sample prepared without using a fluorescent dye are provided. The problem is resolved by the measurement method for measuring the number of particles in a measurement sample prepared without using a fluorescent dye, the method including obtaining information related to lipid particles contained in the measurement sample based on a plurality of characteristic values regarding light scattering in each particle obtained by a flow cytometer from the individual particles contained in the measurement sample.
Abstract:
A measuring apparatus includes a flow cell through which a sample containing particles flows, a light source for irradiating light on the sample flowing through the flow cell, a fluorescence detector for detecting the fluorescence generated from the sample irradiated with light from the light source, and a control unit for flowing a positive control sample containing a fluorescent dye through the flow cell, measuring the fluorescence generated from the positive control sample irradiated by the light from the light source via the fluorescence detector, comparing the obtained measurement value and a reference value, and adjusting the detection sensitivity of the fluorescence detector according to the comparison result.
