Para 12 Extend is a three-part differential hematology control assayed for Beckman Coulter, Erma, Horiba Medical, HTI Diagnostics, Mindray, Nihon Kohden and Siemens 3-part hematology analyzers. It features vials with pierceable caps for autosampling and is available in low, normal and high levels.

Product Description
Para 12 Extend is a whole blood assayed hematology control which offers complete assay values for the three-part white blood cell differential. It features three distinct populations of lymphocytes, mononuclears and granulocytes. Varying percentages are also offered in the low abnormal, normal and high abnormal levels to test the accuracy and precision of the reported white cell populations. Para 12 Extend is available in 2.5 mL or 4.5 mL vials with pierceable caps for autosampling. Its long shelf life reduces the number of shipments, associated costs and time spent performing lot-to-lot correlation.
