Neutrophil Receptor Profile : 0095921
[ image for: Time Sensitive]
Time Sensitive
  


Mnemonic: NEUT RECEP

Methodology: Flow Cytometry
Performed: Sun-Sat
Reported: 1-3 days
Specimen Required: Collect: One 7 mL green (sodium or lithium heparin) from patient AND one 7 mL green (sodium heparin) from normal control subject drawn at the same time. Client must supply the normal control.

Storage/Transport Temperature: 5 mL whole blood from patient AND 5 mL whole blood from control subject drawn at the same time, at 2-8°C. (Min: 1 mL patient whole blood and 1 mL control whole blood)

Remarks: CRITICAL REFRIGERATED. Sample must be received within 24 hours of collection. Antigen densities cannot be reported unless a normal control sample is also supplied.

Unacceptable Conditions: Clotted, ambient, or frozen samples. Samples submitted without a normal control drawn at the same time. Samples greater than 24 hours.

Stability (collection to initiation of testing): Ambient: Unacceptable; Refrigerated: 24 hours; Frozen: Unacceptable

Interpretive Data: The Neutrophil Receptor Panel measures CD11b, CD15, CD16, and CD18 on neutrophils. CD11b is the receptor for the C3bi fragment of complement. CD15 is a ligand for E and P selectins. CD16 is the IgG Fc receptor. CD11b is an alpha subunit, and CD18 is the beta subunit of Mac-1, also known as CR3. All of these receptors are normally found on neutrophils. The percentage of patient neutrophils bearing these receptors is reported. In addition, the receptor surface density of each antigen is compared to normal neutrophils and expressed as a percent. Values outside of the reference interval may correlate with abnormal neutrophil function. For example, CD18 is decreased or absent in leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) type I and CD15 is decreased or absent in LAD type II.
