Flow cytometric enumeration of CD34 & #43; hematopoietic stem cells: A comparison between single- versus dual-platform methodology using the International Society of Hematotherapy and Graft Engineering protocol

Conclusion: In our study, both single versus dual platform had similar results in CD34+ cell counts. The single platform provides rapid results with ease of procedure. Errors with dual platforms are relatively common with respect to denominator. We recommend to use mean of total leukocyte count from two different hematology analyzer to minimize variation in dual platform.
