Comprehensive flow cytometric reference intervals of leukocyte subsets from six study centers across Europe.

ABSTRACT: A group of European FOCIS Centers of Excellence adapted panels of the Human Immunophenotyping Consortium (HIPC) for whole blood analysis. Using four core panels [T/regulatory T cell/B/natural killer (T/T_reg /B/NK) and myeloid cells] the main leukocyte populations were analyzed in a clinical-diagnostic setting in a harmonized manner across different platforms. As a first step, the consortium presents here the absolute and relative frequencies of the leukocyte subpopulations in the peripheral blood of more than 300 healthy volunteers across six different European centers.
