Blood cell quantification on dry blood samples: toward patient-centric complete blood counts
Digital explosion of news articles and data from a computer screen, symbolizing information overload, digital chaos, and media consumption
Dobielewski M, Hauser J, Beck O, Stemme G & Roxhed N | Bioanalysis, 14(10), 693-701, (2022) Keywords: • blood • cells • complete blood count • counting • differentiation • dry • patient-centric • quantification • RBC • WBC Background: Performing complete blood counts from patients' homes could have a transformative impact on e-based healthcare. Blood microsampling and sample drying are enabling elements for patient-centric healthcare. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of dry blood samples for image-based cell quantification of red and white blood cells. Methods: A manual sample preparation method was developed and tested for image-based red...
