Complete Blood Count Device Market, by Product Type (3-Part Analyzer, 5-Part Analyzer, and 6-Part Analyzer), by Modality (Portable and Stationary), by Test Type (White Blood Cell Count (WBC or leukocyte count), WBC Differential Count, Red Blood Cell Count (RBC or erythrocyte count), Hematocrit (Hct), Hemoglobin (Hbg), Platelet Count, Mean Platelet Volume (MPV), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH), and Others), by End User (Hospital, Diagnostic Laboratories, Research Institutes, and Others), and by Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Africa, and Latin America) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2021 - 2028
A complete blood count (CBC), sometimes known as a full blood count (FBC), is a series of medical laboratory tests that give information regarding a person's blood cells. The CBC measures the number of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets, as well as hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit. The CBC is done with standard laboratory equipment or an automated hematological analyzer, which counts cells and records their size and structure. Three varieties of CBC devices exist: 3-part analyzer, 5-part analyzer, and 6-part analyzer.
The 3-part differential analyzer measures the volume of white blood cells electrically and classifies the cells based on their size, into three groups which include a small white blood cell group (lymphocytes), a medium-sized white blood cell group (monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils), and a large white blood cell group (neutrophils). A 5-part analyzer is a differential hematology instrument that uses the principle of flow cytometry to differentiate white blood cells (WBC) into their five major substitutes which include neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. 6-part analyzers are based on various technologies such as flow cytometry, light scattering, absorbance, electrical impedance, volume cytochemistry-based flow-cytometry, and other novel technologies.
Market Dynamics
Increasing approval of products launched by key players is expected to drive the growth of the global complete blood count device market in the forecast period. For instance, in January 2018, Abbott Laboratories announced that it had received CE Mark for its Alinity h-series integrated system for hematology testing. Moreover, the system offers high-throughput CBC analysis along with automated slide making and staining. It can perform 125 CBC per m2. It also integrates the Alinity hq with the Alinity hs slide maker and stainer module.
