    This study optimized a Polybrene method using an AutoAnalyzer to screen blood-grouping sera for unwanted antibodies. Modifications improved system stability and antibody detection, enhancing blood typing accuracy.

    Area of Science:

    • Immunology
    • Biochemistry
    • Medical Technology

    Background:

    • Screening blood-grouping sera is crucial for safe transfusions.
    • Unwanted antibodies in sera can cause transfusion reactions.
    • Existing methods require optimization for broad antibody detection.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To adapt a low-ionic strength Polybrene method for automated blood-grouping serum screening.
    • To overcome technical challenges with cell aggregation in automated systems.
    • To improve the reliability and efficiency of antibody detection in blood typing.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a single-channel AutoAnalyzer for serum screening.
    • Employed a low-ionic strength Polybrene method to enhance antibody-antigen interactions.
