What is the Difference Between a Biochemistry Analyzer and a Hematology Analyzer?

release time:2022-06-08 15:10:46

Are biochemistry analyzers and hematology analyzers similar analyzer products? What is the difference between these two analyzers? What are the differences and similarities?

Biochemistry analyzers and hematology analyzers are two different instruments with different properties and categories. However, there is overlap in their testing programs. The hematology analyzer can replace the traditional biochemistry analyzer for the determination of potassium, sodium, glucose and total blood carbon dioxide. However, there are differences in the results of potassium and total carbon dioxide.

Biochemistry Analyzer

SD1 biochemistry Analyzer

A biochemistry analyzer uses the photoelectric colorimetric principle to measure a specific chemical component in body fluids. Biochemistry machines can test for the following four types of items.


01 Liver function
ALT/GPT, AST/GOT alkaline phosphatase (ALP) total bilirubin (T.BIL) direct bilirubin (D.BIL), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB)

02 Renal function
Urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cre), carbon dioxide binding capacity (CO2), uric acid (UA)

03 Blood lipids
Total cholesterol (CHO), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)

03 Glucose
Glucose (GLU)

Hematology Analyzer

Hematology analyzer is also known as hematology analyzer, blood cell analyzer, hematocrit analyzer, blood cell counter.

Hematology Analyzer

The hematology analyzer mainly detects red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cell count (WBC), platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin (HGB), mean red blood cell volume (MCV), lymphocytes (LYM), monocytes (MON), neutrophils (NEU), eosinophils (EOS), and basophils (BAS).


Among the background count data are the following.
  • Total white blood cell count (WBC) ≤ 0.3 × 10/L.
  • red blood cell count (RBC) ≤ 0.05×10/L.
  • Platelet count (PLT) ≤ 10×10/L, and
  • Hemoglobin content (HGB) ≤ 2g/L.
The above is the introduction of biochemical analyzer and hematology analyzer. In general, although both analyzers belong to analytical products, the difference between them is quite big. Hematology analyzer and biochemistry analyzer test content occasionally partially overlap, and the gap in data is relatively large. Professional laboratory physicians generally do not confuse the two.

There are many different tests that are used to diagnose heart-related problems. They often include electrocardiograms, X-rays, echocardiograms, blood tests, coronary angiograms, radionuclide tests, MRI scans, CT scans and more. Blood tests are often the most basic diagnostic tool. Blood tests can detect various indices of the patient, while myocardial enzyme profile is usually an important parameter in the clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases.
