Q

Clinically significant___________ are those that cause decreased survival of RBCs possessing the target antigen.

A. autoantibodies
B. alloantibodies
C. antibodies
D. nota

A

Clinically significant alloantibodies are those that cause decreased survival of RBCs possessing the target antigen.

These antibodies are typically IgG antibodies that react at 37°C and/or at the antihuman globulin (AHG) phase of the indirect antiglobulin test (IAT).

what test method is to adhere IgG sensitized erythrocytes to an immunologically active matrix

a. tube method
b. gel technology
c. solid phase technology
d. affinity column technology

A

AFFINITY COLUMN TECHNOLOGY (Gamma React)

➢ Principle of affinity adherence of IgG sensitized erythrocytes to an immunologically active matrix

18
Q

A positive antibody screen and a negative autologous control indicates that an________ has been detected

a. alloantibodies
b. alloantibodies

A

autologous control

  • The autologous control is the patient’s RBCs tested against the patient’s serum in the same manner as the antibody screen
  • A positive antibody screen and a negative autologous control indicates that an alloantibody has been detected
19
Q

react best at the AHG phase

a. IgM
b. IgG
c. Multiple antibodies
d. Autologous control

A

IgM

  • react best at room temperature or lower
  • capable on causing agglutination of saline suspended RBCs

igG
- react best at AHG phase

20
Q

process used to physically remove antibodies from sera

a. antibody adsorption
b. antibody elution
c. nota
d. aota

A

ANTIBODY ADSORPTION

  • Adsorption is a process used to physically remove antibodies from sera.
  • The adsorption procedure may be performed using washed and/or enzyme-treated autologous RBCs, phenotypically matched allogeneic cells, cells selected to be positive for a specific combination of blood group antigens, or RBC stroma.
21
Q

is the process used to remove antibodies bound to RBCs, as indicated by a positive DAT.

a. antibody adsorption
b. antibody elution
c. nota
d. aota

A

ANTIBODY ELUTION

  • Elution is the process used to remove antibodies bound to RBCs, as indicated by a positive DAT.
  • Elution is commonly used to concentrate and solubilize antibodies from RBCs for subsequent identification studies.
  • The elution of an antibody with KNOWN BG / DRUG DRUG SPECIFICTY can be diagnostic in the evaluation of acute and delayed HTR, HDFN, AIHA, and immune hemolytic anemia induced by medication
