Automatic expert-class hematology analyzer: the benchmark of 6-level leukocyte differential — especially strong in feline diagnostics.
When a blood count should deliver not just numbers, but a confident differential — especially in cats.
Questions about this model
How is BC-60R tailored for animals?
The manufacturer positions the instrument for animal clinical characteristics and the vet lab: SF-Cube and species scenarios (incl. cats) are part of that logic; Rising pathological samples need accurate assays; reticulocyte indices are needed for anemia type; clinicians need instrument intelligence and easy-to-read results
What does the SF-Cube platform provide?
3D-Cube combines light scatter (SS — size/complexity) and fluorescence (nucleic acids). That classifies leukocytes more accurately and helps see more abnormal cells for the clinic; Combining scatter and fluorescence yields a volumetric map of cell clusters — more accurate than classic 2D diff on complex samples
Is there a RET channel?
Yes: a reticulocyte channel for anemia differentiation. manufacturer claims interference resistance at 650 nm and high RNA specificity of RET dyes with reduced DNA response; Expert veterinary auto-hematology analyzer from Mindray Animal: a 6-level differentiation benchmark; manufacturer especially highlights feline diagnostic scenarios. Clear UI for the everyday lab
Why are lymphocytes and neutrophils separated better?
Traditional staining often confuses lymphocytes and neutrophils. Mindray Animal’s 3rd-generation staining technology shows clearer differentiation and classifies leukocytes more accurately; Leukocyte channel on Cube-3D: more confident classification and more abnormal cells (incl. band neutrophils, nRBC) for clinical interpretation
Is there training and service?
Mindray Academy / on-site training and Intermed service — in training & service and the quote. SLA and rollout scope are fixed to the lab’s workload.
When is BC-60R Vet not the right fit?
Routine CBC without expert workup is enough — do not overpay for SF-Cube → BC-20 Vet / BC-2800 Vet; Type — Veterinary auto-hematology · expert class. You need eosinophils but not laser expertise and autoload → BC-30 Vet; Parameters — 33 (6-part diff, RET channel)
