Freeze dried platelets for HLA alloantibodies absorption.
Antibodies to HLA-A and B are specifically absorbed onto platelets. A method of absorption of these antibodies using freeze dried platelets is described. This method allows long-term storage and standardized absorption procedures. Anti-DR antibodies and cold lymphocytotoxins are recovered in the supernatant.
