HAEMATOLOGY ANALYSER (Sysmex XQ-320)
The XQ-320 replaces the XP-300 starting from 2023. The XQ-320 uses the same reagents and solutions as the XP-300 but spare parts are different for both models.
Definition
Sysmex XQ-320 is an automated haematology analyser allowing analysis of the main clinical parameters associated to haematology, including, total and differential (3-part) white blood count, platelets and haemoglobin.
Specifications
Parameters: haemoglobin measurements, white cell, red cell and platelet counts, red cell indices: 20 parameters
