Q

describe membrane modification mechanism of ation

A

drug nonspecifically binds RBC membrane so IgG, IgM and IgA attach
- nonimmune process
- no hemolysis

20
Q

how is diagnosis of drug adsorption induced antibody made

A

eluate and ABIF pos with drug coated panel cells only

21
Q

how is a diagnosis of immune complex antibodies made

A

patient serume + drug + ABO compatible blood = hemolysis

22
Q

how is a diagnosis of membrane modification antibodies made

A

everything else is ruled out
- no hemolysis

23
Q

how is a diagnosis of drug independent antibody formation made

A

history of drug use

24
Q

how is chemo drug detected

A

DTT removes antigen and ID becomes negative
