| | The Coulter Counter MD 8 is a quantitative automated hematology analyzer used for determining the following parameters: WBC (leukocyte count), RBC (erythrocyte count), Hgb (hemoglobin concentration), Hct (hematocrit), MCV (mean corpuscular volume), MCH (mean corpuscular hemoglobin), MCHC (mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration), and PLT (platelet count). | | | PLT: Very small erythrocytes, leukocytes or cell fragments may cause no-fit conditions. | | | The well established Coulter method counts and sizes cells by detecting and measuring changes in electrical resistance when a particle in a conductive fluid passes through a small aperture. |

| | Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, or MCHC, is a measure of the concentration hemoglobin in a red blood cell. | | | Because of the way automated analysers count blood cells, a very high MCHC (greater than about 370 g/L) may indicate the blood is from someone with a cold agglutination problem. | | | This means that when their blood gets colder than 37°C it starts to clump together. |
