For Professionals in Clinical Diagnostics

 

Overview

The BD OneFlow™ PCD Tube is part of the innovative BD OneFlow™ Solution, a comprehensive set of reagents, setup beads, protocols and assay templates to reproducibly set up the flow cytometer and stain, acquire and analyze patient specimens for immunophenotyping of normal and aberrant cell populations. It is built on the research and validation work of the EuroFlow™ Consortium on the characterization of hematological malignancies for improved accurate diagnosis.1* 

 

The BD OneFlow™ PCD Tube, when run in parallel with the BD OneFlow™ Plasma Cell Screening Tube (PCST), is intended for flow cytometric immunophenotyping of normal and aberrant plasma cells in bone marrow as an aid in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma or other plasma cell disorders.

 

Other reagents belonging to the BD OneFlow™ Solution are BD OneFlow™ Lymphoid Screening Tube (LST)BD OneFlow™ B-cell Chronic Lymphoproliferative Diseases Tube 1 (B-CLPD T1)BD OneFlow™ Plasma Cell Screening Tube (PCST) and BD OneFlow™ Acute Leukaemia Orientation Tube (ALOT).

APPLICATIONS

Supporting Evidence

The EuroFlow “PCD panel was able to detect and fully characterize the immunophenotype of aberrant plasma cells or their normal/reactive counterparts in all the samples tested (100), as also assessed by routine diagnostic protocols performed in parallel.”1*
