    A new particle counting method accurately measures red blood cell agglutination over time. This technique is ideal for studying zygosity and blood antigen variations in family health investigations.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Hematology
    • Genetics

    Background:

    • Agglutination assays are crucial for understanding red blood cell interactions.
    • Existing methods for quantifying agglutination can be complex and time-consuming.
    • Accurate measurement is vital for genetic and antigenic variation studies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel, simple, sensitive, and reproducible particle counting method.
    • To quantify the percentage of red blood cell agglutination as a function of time.
    • To provide a tool for studying zygosity and antigenic variations.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a particle counting procedure for agglutination analysis.
    • Measured the percentage of red blood cell agglutination.
