Reagents Needed to Operate the VetScan HM5

Abaxis provides environmentally-friendly, cyanide-free VetScan HM5 reagents in one convenient package for easy reagent changing. The reagent pack includes the following:

  • Diluent: Isotonic saline solution is used to dilute whole blood specimens and to rinse the analyzer's fluidic system between analyses.
  • Rinse: Used with diluent to prevent salt build-up on aperture.
  • Cleaner: Used in the fluidic system cleaning process.
  • Lyse: Used to create hemolysate for three-part WBC differential and for total WBC and HGB.
  • Lyse2: Used to dilute whole blood and differentially hemolyse white blood cells to separate eosinophiols from other WBC's.

Calibrator/Control

Abaxis provides three levels of controls for checking the instrument calibration through instrument quality control. When necessary, the normal control can be used to calibrate the instrument.
