Differential counts add up to 100 percent.
Cbc with differential normal values.
The following are normal complete blood count results for adults.
The blood sample is sent to a lab for analysis.
For males the normal value is slightly higher at 4 7 to 6 1 million red blood cells per microliter.
National library of medicine the normal value for a female is 4 2 to 5 4 million red blood cells per microliter 1 2.
The primary function of the rbc is to deliver oxygen to tissues.
Platelets play a vital role in blood clotting.

If your results are inside the reference range they re considered normal.
