title: Fluorescence crossmatch testing.
abstract: This paper is a short evaluation of the crossmatch testing performed with the fluorescence cytotoxic test to detect HLA compatibility of the platelet concentrates administered. From a total of 1,500 reactions between HLA incompatible donors and recipients mutual agreement was achieved in 96% of the reactions. HLA compatibility between donors and recipients was achieved in 97.31%. Advantages of the fluorescence method were stressed out.
