CD34 Enumeration (Stem Cell Enumeration)

Transplantation of hematopoietic progenitor cells is used increasingly in the treatment of blood disorders, malignancies, and genetic abnormalities. The CD34 antigen is present on immature hematopoietic precursor cells and hematopoietic colony-forming cells in bone marrow and blood, including unipotent and pluripotent progenitor cells. An accurate measure of the CD34 cell count is necessary for dose requirement protocols in stem cell transplantation.

Mandatory requirement
  • Total Count from the same tube needs to be brought along with the tube
Details
  • Test Includes - CD45, CD34, 7-AAD
  • Specimen Type - mobilized peripheral blood/mobilized peripheral blood stem cells
  • Container - Lavender top (EDTA) tube
  • Draw Volume - 2 mL peripheral blood/peripheral blood stem cells in EDTA tube
  • Methodology - Dual platform
Availability
  • Working days Monday through Friday (9.30AM - 3.00PM)
  • Results available in 2 hours after receiving the sample
