title: Studies on section 2D3 monoclonal antibodies.
abstract: Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against CD-related antigens were tested with various red cell samples from different ethnic groups in KwaZulu-Natal. The MAbs were tested by standard red cell serological techniques. The MAbs with specificities CD44, CD58 and RBC, reacted with all the samples tested. CD99 was non-reactive. The two Rh?related MAbs showed possible Rh specificity by saline technique, as did one CD47, MAb 2D3-6.
