Basophilia granulocyte analytical reagent and assay method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of cell analysis reagent and a kind of cell analysis method, particularly relate to a kind of reagent and a kind of cell analysis method that basophilic granulocyte is measured that is used for the basophilic granulocyte analysis.
Background technology
In the normal human, the basophilic granulocyte negligible amounts only accounts for the 0-1% of total white blood cells.But in diseases such as heavy metal poisoning, Hodgkin's disease, chronic myelocytic leukemia, the quantity of basophilic granulocyte can obviously raise, so the basophilic granulocyte counting is significant for the diagnosis of these diseases.
In the past, often use some chemical dyes to come basophilic granulocyte is carried out dyeing counting clinically, comprising Rui Shi-Jim Sa compound staining, Toluidine blue staining method and dimethyl diaminophenazine chloride decoration method etc.Though these methods are simple, directly perceived, effectively because the number percent counting of basophilic granulocyte only can be provided, exist simultaneously the running time long, be subject to shortcoming such as the subjective influence of operator, so and be not suitable for the detection of clinical extensive sample.
Harmet etc. (Blood, 1975,46:279-286) introduced a kind of method of using the fully automatic blood cell analysis apparatus that basophilic granulocyte is counted.This method uses dyestuff A Li Xinlan (alcian blue) that leucocyte is dyeed under the condition of low pH value, by visible light and the infrared light scattering signal of measuring cell basophilic granulocyte and other leucocytes is distinguished then.Yet A Li Xinlan has shortcomings such as being difficult for dissolving and easily separates out, and may become infringement to some parts of instrument.
US4,882,284 disclose a kind of method of leucocyte being carried out differential count.Use fluorescent dye that leucocyte is dyeed in the method, leucocyte can have been divided lymphoblast, monocyte, neutrophil leucocyte, eosinophil and five subgroups of basophilic granulocyte by measuring fluorescence, side scattered light and forward angle light scatter light signal then.But because the fluorescence of basophilic granulocyte and forward angle light scatter light signal and neutrophil leucocyte, monocytic fluorescence and forward-scattering signal overlap; when therefore using this method that basophilic granulocyte quantity sample normal or on the low side is measured, counting and classification results are inaccurate.
US5196346 discloses a kind of reagent and method that is used for the basophilic granulocyte counting.Contain polyethenoxy ether class (polyoxyethylene ether) surfactant, phthalic acid (pathalicacid)-hydrochloric acid mixture, lauryl sodium sulfate (SDS) and antioxidant BHT components such as (butylatedhydroxytoluene type anti-oxidizing agent) in the reagent.This reagent can dissolve red blood cell fully, and destroys other leucocyte beyond the basophilic granulocyte, keeps the structural integrity of basophilic granulocyte simultaneously, therefore basophilic granulocyte and other leukocyte differentiations can be come by the impedance signal of measuring cell.But this method only uses single parameter (impedance signal) that basophilic granulocyte is carried out differential count, compares with the sorting technique of multiparameter, and its accuracy is lower.
US5518928 discloses a kind of method that is used for the basophilic granulocyte counting.Used the reagent of forming by polyxyethylated alcohol (polyoxyethylene glycol ether) non-ionic surfactant Brij35, phthalic acid and antioxidant in the method, can destroy other leucocyte except that basophilic granulocyte, only keep the integrality of basophilic granulocyte structure.By measuring the low angle and the high angle scatter light signal of cell, basophilic granulocyte can be carried out differential count then.But this method need just can be measured blood and reagent after mixed 50 seconds, has therefore limited its application on the automated blood analysis device.
US5538893 discloses a kind of basophilic granulocyte analyrical reagent and method of being used for.Principal ingredient in the reagent comprises polyxyethylated alcohol (polyoxyethylene glycolether), the cationic surfactant of nonionic surfactants and is used for the buffering agent of regulator solution pH value.This reagent can keep the structural integrity of basophilic granulocyte only with the leucocyte bare nucleusization except that basophilic granulocyte.Then by the impedance of mensuration cell or the signal of low angle scattered light acquisition cell size aspect, pass through to measure the side direction of cell or the signal that high angle scatter light obtains the cell interior configuration aspects again, at last two kinds of signals are made up and can carry out differential count to basophilic granulocyte.But cationic surfactant that uses in the reagent and polyoxyethylene non-ionic surfactant, the two effect is separate, does not have synergy.
US5677183 discloses the method for a kind of leukocyte differential count and counting.Used two kinds of reagent in the method, first reagent is mainly used in leukocytic four class cells and hives off, and second reagent is mainly used in the counting of basophilic granulocyte.The principal ingredient of second reagent comprises polyxyethylated alcohol (polyoxyethylene glycol ether), the cationic surfactant of nonionic surfactants and is used for the buffering agent of regulator solution pH value.It can be with other leucocyte bare nucleusization except that basophilic granulocyte, but the structure of basophilic granulocyte still is kept perfectly.By two kinds of signals measuring reflection cell size and reflection cell interior structure basophilic granulocyte is carried out differential count then.But cationic surfactant that uses in the reagent and polyoxyethylene non-ionic surfactant, the two effect is separate, does not have synergy.
US6214625B1 discloses a kind of reagent and method that basophilic granulocyte and eosinophilic granulocyte are carried out differential count.Reagent is made up of a kind of hemolytic agent and a kind of stabilizing agent, and wherein the principal ingredient of hemolytic agent comprises long-chain amine (ethoxylated long chain amine), the quaternary ammonium salts cationic surfactant of ethoxylation and organic acid or the mineral acid that is used to regulate the pH value.Behind hemolytic agent and the blood cell mixing certain hour, only there is the structure of basophilic granulocyte to be kept perfectly, adds stabilizing agent subsequently and stop the further destruction of hemolytic agent basophilic granulocyte.Finally, by impedance, rotation scattered light (the rotated light scatter) signal of measuring cell, perhaps radio frequency (radio frequency), log light scattering (log light scatter) can be carried out differential count to basophilic granulocyte.But the parameter measured of this method is more, needs a plurality of special determinators, the apparatus structure complexity, costs an arm and a leg.
