title: [3 new antibody detection tests. A comparative study].
abstract: Erythrocyte antibodies are of clinical importance since they may cause decreased red cell survival as the result of hemolytic transfusion reactions, hemolytic disease of the newborn or autoimmune hemolytic anemia. A variety of in vitro antibody screening tests are employed to detect their presence in donor and patient sera. Three new methods now available for pretransfusion testing--two solid phase antiglobulin tests and a gel centrifugation test--are compared in parallel with a conventional tube test.
