Para 12® Plus

Para 12 Plus is a whole blood hematology control that offers complete assay values for the five-part white blood cell differential. This control offers low, normal and high cell percentages to test the accuracy and precision of the reported white cell populations, comes in 3 mL vials with pierceable caps for autosampling and has a long shelf life which reduces the number of shipments, associated costs and time spent performing lot-to-lot correlation. Each Para 12 Plus label is barcoded to assist with quality control data collection, eliminating the possibility of transcription errors.

Para 12 Plus is compatible with the Abbott® CELL-DYN five-part differential Ruby® hematology analyzer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Para 12 Plus is a whole blood hematology control formulated specifically for the Abbott CELL-DYN five-part differential Ruby instrument. This control offers complete assay values for the five-part white blood cell differential and is available in low, normal and high levels.

A five-part differential separates white blood cells into five populations: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and basophils. This detailed differentiation provides more comprehensive information about white blood cell composition than a three-part differential and is important for diagnosing and monitoring various medical conditions.

Para 12 Plus is available in three clinically significant levels: low, normal and high. These levels offer different cell percentages to test the accuracy and precision of the reported white cell populations across the clinically relevant range.

Para 12 Plus offers 7-day open-vial stability and 75-day closed-vial stability. This shelf life reduces the number of shipments and associated costs while minimizing time spent performing lot-to-lot correlations.

Para 12 Plus comes in 3 mL plastic vials with pierceable caps for analyzer autosampling. Each label is barcoded to assist with quality control data collection, eliminating the possibility of transcription errors and improving data management efficiency.

Para 12 Plus is specifically formulated and assayed for the Abbott CELL-DYN five-part differential Ruby instrument, ensuring optimal performance on this platform. Instrument-specific controls provide more accurate quality control because they are validated with the exact technology and algorithms used by that analyzer, reducing the potential for matrix effects or measurement discrepancies.
