Immunological characterization of 18 monoclonal antibodies directed against Rh, G and LW molecules

In this work we studied 18 monoclonal antibodies (MAB s ) of various specificities directed against Rh, G and LW molecules. These antibodies were tested by agglutination techniques using a panel of human red blood cells (RBC) of common and rare phenotypes in order to: 1. Confirm their specificity 2. Investigate their reactivity with Rh variants 3. Determine their titres using various techniques.
