Hardware

The Beckman Coulter DxH 560 is a high-throughput, automated hematology analyzer designed for clinical laboratories requiring precise 5-part differential leukocyte counting with advanced cellular analysis capabilities. The system incorporates a hydrodynamic focusing flow cell with semiconductor laser detection, enabling accurate enumeration of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), red cell distribution width (RDW), platelets (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), and platelet distribution width (PDW). The analyzer features a 60-sample/hour throughput with a minimum sample volume of 1.5µL, utilizing both whole blood and prediluted samples. The optical system achieves a coefficient of variation (CV) of ≤0.5% for WBC counts and ≤1.0% for RBC counts at clinically relevant concentrations.

Software / Upgrade / OS / Applications / Worklist

The DxH 560 operates on a proprietary embedded operating system with Beckman Coulter's DxH 560 Software v3.1, providing comprehensive hematology analysis with advanced data processing algorithms. The software implements a five-part differential counting algorithm based on volume, conductivity, and scatter (VCS) technology, which classifies leukocytes into neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils with clinical accuracy comparable to manual microscopy. The system features automated flagging for abnormal cell populations including blasts, immature granulocytes, variant lymphocytes, and nucleated red blood cells, with configurable sensitivity thresholds. The software includes a fully integrated quality control module compliant with CLIA '88 and ISO 15189 standards, supporting both Levey-Jennings and Westgard multi-rule charts with automatic out-of-control detection and documentation.

Accessories

The DxH 560 system is supported by a comprehensive accessory ecosystem from Beckman Coulter, including UniCel DxH Reagent Kit containing 3-part lyse reagent for WBC differential, 3-part diluent for RBC/PLT counting, and hemoglobin reagent for photometric measurement. The system requires UniCel DxH Calibrator (5-level) for optical system calibration and UniCel DxH Controls (3-level) for daily quality assurance testing, both traceable to international reference standards. For sample handling, the analyzer accommodates UniCel DxH Sample Racks (20-position) with barcode identification, UniCel DxH Sample Cups (1.5mL and 2.0mL capacities), and UniCel DxH Barcode Scanner (2D imaging) for automated sample identification. The system supports UniCel DxH Printer (thermal) for local result printing and UniCel DxH Label Printer for sample tube labeling. For data management, the analyzer is compatible with UniCel DxH Data Management Software for archiving and trend analysis, and UniCel DxH Remote...

Additional Information

The Beckman Coulter DxH 560 hematology analyzer represents a significant advancement in automated hematology testing, incorporating VCS (Volume, Conductivity, Scatter) technology that provides clinical performance comparable to manual microscopy while eliminating subjectivity and inter-operator variability. The analyzer's optical system utilizes a semiconductor laser with a wavelength of 635nm and photomultiplier tube detectors for high-sensitivity cell characterization, achieving a dynamic range of 0-1,000,000 cells/µL for WBC counts and 0-8,000,000 cells/µL for RBC counts. The system's hydrodynamic focusing technology ensures precise cell alignment with a coefficient of variation of less than 0.5% for WBC differential counts, making it suitable for high-complexity laboratories requiring CAP accreditation. The DxH 560 is compliant with multiple international standards including ISO 15189 for medical laboratories, ISO 20776-1 for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and ISO 13485 for quality management systems. The analyzer has received FDA 510(k) clearance under K193485 with indications for use in clinical laboratories for in vitro diagnostic testing of human blood specimens. The system is CE marked under EU IVD Directive 98/79/EC and complies with the new EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 requirements for Class IIb devices. The DxH 560 participates in the College of American Pathologists (CAP) proficiency testing program and consistently achieves scores above 95% for all measured parameters. The analyzer is compatible with Beckman Coulter's UniCel family of hematology analyzers, allowing for seamless integration into existing laboratory workflows and data management systems.
