RESUMEN
Objective To explore the influence of fixed in advance on the positive rate and integral of neutrophilic alkaline phosphatase (NAP) dyeing.Methods Totally 182 cases of fresh venous blood from inpatients in the top three hospital department of hematology were randomly selected and anticoagulated in the EDTA-K2 vacuum tube.Three blood smears from which were prepared as follows:the first blood smear(Named A) NAP dyeing completed within an hour;the second one (Named B) were fixed in advanceand NAP dyeing after one day;the third one (Named C) didn′t do any processing and NAP dyeing after one day.At the same time,the blood samples were taken from the fresh blood,and the blood smears were prepared and stained with NAP in an hour.NAP dyeing were performed by NAP dyeing for the blood smears,and 100 neutral rods,nucleus granulocyte were observed under microscope in the oil mirror vision,the test results record by positive rate and integral.Results No significant difference of NAP positive rate and integral was found in EDTA-K2 anticoagulation venous blood smear A when compared with fresh peripheral blood(P>0.05).The NAP positive rate and integral of EDTA-K2 anticoagulation venous blood smear B was slightly lower than that from fresh peripheral blood,but no significant difference was found(P>0.05).However,the NAP positive rate and integral in EDTA-K2 anticoagulant venous blood smear C has a significant difference from fresh peripheral blood(P<0.05).Conclusion The NAP dyeing results of EDTA-K2 anticoagulation venous blood smear fixed and placed one days are still reliable,while the NAP dyeing results was significantly reduced in the unfixed EDTA-K2 anticoagulation venous blood smear placed after one day.
