Key features

• Integrated CBC and ESR: The BC-700 series combines the complete blood count (CBC) and ESR tests into a single instrument. This eliminates the need for a separate ESR analyzer, saving both time and space in the lab.
• 5-part differential analysis: The analyzers use flow cytometry to differentiate white blood cells (WBCs) into five populations: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. The system measures cell size and complexity (granularity) for this differentiation.
• Advanced diagnostic capabilities: Both instruments offer advanced diagnostic parameters, such as Immature Granulocytes (IG) and Nucleated Red Blood Cells (NRBCs). They are designed to provide accurate cell counts, even in cases with abnormal cells.
• Platelet interference removal: The analyzers incorporate technology to reduce interference from microcytic red blood cells, fragmented red blood cells, and large platelets, which can skew platelet counts.
• Throughput: The BC-760 and BC-780 are designed for medium-to-high-volume labs.
  • BC-760: An open-vial model, where samples are manually loaded one at a time.
  • BC-780: An autoloader model, which allows labs to process multiple samples without constant manual intervention, increasing automation and efficiency.
• Intuitive software and operation: The instruments feature easy-to-use software and a clear user interface for straightforward operation and reagent management. 

Comparison: BC-760 vs. BC-780

The primary difference between the two models is their sample loading method, which determines their suitability for different laboratory workflows: 

• Mindray BC-760: This is the open-vial model, ideal for labs that need the same high-level analysis but have a lower sample volume or prefer manual loading for specific patient samples.
• Mindray BC-780: This is the autoloader model, designed for higher-volume labs that need to process many samples automatically for increased efficiency.
