The use of solid-phase assays for the detection of irregular antibodies facilitates automatization and rationalization in blood group serology. We compared the solid screen assay, (SP-assay, Biotest AG, Frankfurt, FRG) with conventional assays for antibody screening. The SP assay was as sensitive as the conventional indirect antibody test (IAT). Whereas only 4% of cold-reactive antibodies detected in enzyme tests showed positive results in the SP-assay, this test produced unspecific positive reactions in 7% of all tested sera. We found two additional antibodies with the SP-assay, not detectable in conventional techniques (anti-D, immune anti-A).

D007118 Immunoassay A technique using antibodies for identifying or quantifying a substance. Usually the substance being studied serves as antigen both in antibody production and in measurement of antibody by the test substance.

D007518 Isoantibodies Antibodies from an individual that react with ISOANTIGENS of another individual of the same species. Alloantibodies
D001788 Blood Grouping and Crossmatching Testing erythrocytes to determine presence or absence of blood-group antigens, testing of serum to determine the presence or absence of antibodies to these antigens, and selecting biocompatible blood by crossmatching samples from the donor against samples from the recipient.
