Clinical Info

This assay provides absolute cell counts and percentages for CD3+ T-cells, CD4 and CD8 T cell subsets,as well as CD4/CD8 ratio.

Specimen Type

Blood

Container

EDTA (Lavender) or Sodium Heparin (Green top)

Collection Instructions

Specimen must arrive within 12 hours of draw. Contact the Flow Cytometry Laboratory at CFAM at CFAMFlow@northwell.edu for collection instructions and consultation on selection of test(s). Container/Tube: Lavender-top (EDTA) tube or Green (Sodium Heparin) Tube Specimen:  3 mL of whole blood Transport Temperature:  Ambient Collection Instructions:  Forward promptly. Specimen cannot be refrigerated. Rejection Criteria - All Peripheral Blood samples that were not kept and/or transported at room temperature 18-25°C will be rejected. These samples are also rejected if the laboratory cannot feasibly complete testing within 24 hours post collection and the sample has not been preserved, unless viability is greater than 50%.
