Red blood cell survival studies in patients with anti-Cha, anti-Yka, anti-Ge, and anti-Vel
The survival of red blood cells, which were strongly incompatible in vitro, was measured in five patients whose serum contained an antibody to a high-frequency antigen. In the two patients with anti-Cha, and in the patient with anti-Yka, the cells survived normally. In the patient with anti-Ge, a small proportion of the cells was destroyed at an increased rate during the first 24 hours, but the remaining cells survived normally. In the patient with anti-Vel, the injected cells were rapidly destroyed.
