Eosinophil counts are useful in determining an increase (eosinophilia) or decrease (eosinopenia) in eosinophilic granulocytes. This technique, used to perform an absolute count, requires a special diluent and/or stain solution. This diluting fluid will lyse the erythrocytes and only eosinophils will stain a bright orange-red.

FOR IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE ONLY.
RECOMMENDED PROCEDURE: Draw venous or capillary blood to the 1.0 mark in a white cell pipette. Draw eosinophil solution to the 11.0 mark and mix gently for 30 seconds. NOTE: Prolonged, vigorous shaking will tend to cause rupturing of eosinophils. Allow to stand between 5 - 15 minutes. Shake again, charge chamber and allow cells to settle before counting.
