Absolute Lymphocyte Count Calculator

Calculate the Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC) from White Blood Cell count and Lymphocyte percentage. ALC is an important indicator of immune system function.

Calculation Formula

ALC = WBC × Lymphocyte%

Where:
ALC = Absolute Lymphocyte Count
WBC = White Blood Cell count
Lymphocyte% = Lymphocyte percentage

What is Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC)?

The Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC) is a laboratory test that measures the number of lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) in a cubic millimeter of blood. Lymphocytes play a crucial role in the immune system and are important for fighting infections and maintaining immune surveillance.

How to Use This Calculator

  1. Enter the White Blood Cell (WBC) Count in cells per microliter (cells/μL). This value is typically provided in your blood test report.
  2. Enter the Lymphocyte Percentage. This is the percentage of lymphocytes among all white blood cells, also typically found in your blood test report.
  3. Click the Calculate button to compute the ALC.
  4. The result will be displayed in cells per microliter (cells/μL).

Interpreting ALC Results

A normal ALC range varies by age and laboratory, but generally falls between:

  • 1000 - 4800 cells/μL for adults
  • 3000 - 9600 cells/μL for children

Low ALC may indicate:

  • Viral infections (such as HIV, EBV)
  • Cytotoxic drug therapy
  • Severe malnutrition
  • Bone marrow failure

High ALC may indicate:

  • Lymphoproliferative disorders
  • Chronic infections
  • Leukemia

Note: Always consult with a healthcare professional for interpretation of your test results.
