Manual Differential Testing

Manual differential testing allows trained staff to manually count items while looking through a microscope. It’s more complex than it sounds!

Manual differential testing is performed, for example, to help diagnose health issues by accurately counting the number of white blood cells in a blood sample. The count is incremented using preset keys (on the numeric keypad) of the computer keyboard. Multiple counters may be defined, each counter having a different audible sound when incremented as an aid to the operator. Minimum and maximum count thresholds may be set with audible bleeps given when these counts are achieved. Minimum/maximum thresholds are often important in manual differential testing, since once a certain proportion and quantity is achieved a definitive result is known and the operator can move on to the next sample.
