BB Tests
Mixing donor red cells with patient serum/plasma for compatibility
What is Crossmatching
Genotype with Identical alleles
What is Homozygous
This immunoglobulin is shaped as a pentameter
What is IgM?
4+ Reactions in Anti A and Negative reactions with Anti B
What is Type A
An excess of antibody in in vitro testing causing false negatives
What is prozone effect?
Mixing patient plasma with Reagent red cells of a known phenotype
What is antibody Screen
Genotype with opposite alleles
What is heterozygous?
This Immunoglobulin can cross the placenta
What is IgG?
Describes when a person has the D Antigen or not
What is RH?
The organ most effective in removing old or damaged red cells from the body
What is the spleen?
When a patient’s antibody screen is positive, this is the next test
Antibody ID (Antibody panel)
When an Amorph or suppressor gene acts upon an allele it produces this phenotype
What is Null ?
This immunoglobulin can activate the classical pathway for the complement cascade
What is IgM?
When a red cell has no A or B Antigens
What is Type O?
The actual genes inherited from each parent
What is genotype?
Once an Antibody is identified, a donor unit must be negative for this to be compatible for transfusion
What is the correponding antigen
Different forms of a gene found at specific genetic loci
What is an allele?
This Immunoglobulin is Bivalent
What is IgG?
What fluid is used to test against reagent A and B red cells in the Reverse typing?
What is Patient Plasma or Serum?
The secondary immune response
What is the anamnestic response
The Most Important Blood Bank Test
ABO/RH
Opposite Alleles (answer is not Heterozygous)
What is antithetical?
This immunoglobulin needs the antiglobulin test to show visible agglutination
What is igG
This type of inheritance is when a child receive both A and B antigens from it’s parents.
What is Co-Dominant?
In paternity testing, when the child lacks a genetic marker that both the mother and father carry
What is Indirect Exclusion?
