The latent print examiner then goes through each candidate given by AFIS and if a particular fingerprint looks very similar to the unknown fingerprint, the examiner then requests that fingerprint (on the fingerprint card) from the State Bureau of Identification and does a normal, side-by-side comparison between the actual unknown and the known prints.
ANC: The absolute neutrophil count, the number of white blood cells (WBCs) that are neutrophils. The ANC is not measured directly. It is derived by multiplying the WBC count times the percent of neutrophils in the differential WBC count. The percent of neutrophils consists of the segmented (fully mature) neutrophils) + the bands (almost mature neutrophils). The normal range for the ANC = 1.5 to 8.0 (1,500 to 8,000/mm3).
There are many types of white blood cells and each fights infection in a special way. The most important infection-fighting WBC is the neutrophil (new-truh-fil). The number doctors look at is called your absolute neutrophil count (ANC). A healthy person has an ANC between 2,500 and 6,000.The ANC is found by multiplying the WBC count by the percent of neutrophils in the blood.For instance, if the WBC count is 8,000 and 50% of the WBCs are neutrophils, the ANC is 4,000 (8,000 Ã 0.50 = 4,000). When the ANC drops below 1,000 it is called neutropenia (new-truh-peen-e-uh).Your doctor will watch your ANC closely because the risk of infection is much higher when the ANC is below 500.or instance, if the WBC count is 8,000 and 50% of the WBCs are neutrophils, the ANC is 4,000 (8,000 Ã 0.50 = 4,000). When the ANC drops below 1,000 it is called neutropenia (new-truh-peen-e-uh). Your doctor will watch your ANC closely because the risk of infection is much higher when the ANC is below 500.
