Official basis (Guidance): CLSI H20 third edition 2026 addresses reference differential counting; ICSH 2026 supports validated Romanowsky marrow stains. Classification systems do not replace staining SOPs.
Procurement note: Formulations have distinct buffer/fixation requirements. Reporting/counting guidance does not prescribe a single kit.

Official basis (Guidance): ICSH 2026 supports trephine fibrosis assessment. State the grading system, such as European Consensus MF 0–3; liver fibrosis scores are not applicable.
Procurement note: SC12 is an example, not proof that reticulin variants are interchangeable. Fibrosis grading needs criteria, not extra chemicals.
