Automatic hematology analyzer: CBC and leukocyte differential with 4 subpopulations, including Eos. Compact and economical — expands the clinic’s capabilities through simplicity.
The first blood test in the clinic — full CBC with eosinophils, without a heavy analyzer.
Questions about this model
Why 4-diff instead of 3-diff?
Eos# / Eos% give more clinical information from day one — allergy, parasites, inflammation. If 3-diff is enough — see BC-2800 / BC-20; Packshot from the official Mindray Animal page: a touchscreen analyzer for in-house CBC with Eos# / Eos% on the companion-animal flow
Is 9 μL enough for kittens?
The manufacturer positions a 9.0 μL micro sample — suited for small patients. We confirm the draw protocol during training; 9.0 μL micro-aspiration — gentler on small patients. Throughput up to 38 tests/hour at ≥25°C; reaction thermal stability helps in a cool room. A patented aspiration button simplifies loading on the daily flow
Do I need a separate printer?
No: the built-in printer prints reports without a separate device. Wi‑Fi removes the extra network cable; No hassle connecting extra wires; Print analysis results promptly without connecting a separate printer; The cell-lysis reagent is stored inside the device; sensors track volume and consumption, reducing reagent use and cost
How many results are stored?
Memory for up to ~100,000 results with histograms; anomaly flags and clear alarm levels. Convenient for flow and shift review; Simple sample-ID search shows all related analysis results and graphs on one screen; Red, yellow, and blue alarm messages — three fault levels: more intuitive and easier-to-distinguish instrument status changes
How often is maintenance?
maintenance once a week (not daily). Internal lysis with a level sensor reduces reagent consumption; Daily CBC with 4-diff and a 9 µL micro-sample — in the suite or a small clinic lab; BC-30 Vet is a veterinary auto-hematology analyzer from Mindray Animal: CBC with 4-diff and Eos# / Eos% parameters
When is BC-30 Vet not the right fit?
You need laser 5-diff, reticulocytes, complex feline hematology, and LIS at volume → BC-5000 Vet / BC-60R Vet; Type — Automatic hematology analyzer · CBC + 4-diff (four-population WBC differential). Sample volume is low and entry price matters more: classic 3-diff is enough → BC-20 Vet or BC-2800 Vet; Parameters — 23 parameters, including eosinophils Eos# (abs.) and Eos% (%)
