  • Title: Interference of hyperleukocytosis on Coulter Counter Model S blood counts: methods for correction.
    Author: Seigneurin D, Passe D.
    Journal: Biomed Pharmacother; 1983; 37(8):401-4. PubMed ID: 6667345.
    Abstract:
    Hyperleukocytosis leads to an overestimation of the determination by Coulter Counter Model S of erythrocyte count, hemoglobin, MCV and packed cell volume. These overestimations are proportional to the number of leukocytes above a certain limit, and, for the MCV and PCV, depend on the type of leukocytes present. Regression lines have been calculated which allow for correction of the values obtained.
