Hello! I want to ask the following: in an indirect antiglobulin test, what exactly is included in the first bottle that you drip before incubation?
@patricktracy9947
2 жыл бұрын
This would be a potentiator like low-ionic-strength saline (LISS) or polyethylene glycol (PEG). LISS is the most common. Other potentiators are enzymes, but those are used for more specific testing.

Hi is there any benefit in doing an AHG XM on a patient with a negative ABSC and no hx of transfusion or antibodies?
@patricktracy9947
Жыл бұрын
Hi Val, every facility determines its own standard operating procedures (SOPs). Those SOPs must be a balance of patient care, workload and cost. Performing an AHG crossmatch on every unit for every patient would be the safest, but taking into consideration workload and cost, a facility may accept the risk associated with not doing the AHG crossmatch.

Nice to see the procedure but it would have been better if you had explained why you did the washes and why you added LISS and why you added AHG and then Check cells ... just to make it more complete in case someone watching was still confused with the reasoning behind each step.

Hi Douglas, Check cells (also called Coombs check cells) are reagent red cells that are added to the tubes that are negative after the addition of the anti-human globulin in the direct and indirect-antibody tests. They verify that the negative tubes are true negatives, not false negatives.

@patricktracy9947
5 жыл бұрын
I can't tell you what to do or not do. If you are following a procedure, then it should instruct you what the acceptable specimens are.Currently plasma is the most common specimen type for blood banking, but in the past serum was widely used. For tube testing with plasma, we just look at agglutination and background to determine reaction strength. For tube testing with serum, we also look at agglutination and background to determine reaction strength, but we also have to consider hemolysis as a positive reaction. Serum has the ability to activate complement and therefore we may see RBC destruction in the form of hemolysis.
