STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES<br />

INTERPRETATION :<br />

MATERIAL<br />

Harmolysis or agglutination indicate Test Tube<br />

incompatibility.<br />

Test red cell<br />

Positive: - If agglutination appears after adding AHG reagent<br />

AHG in positive control test tube.<br />

Sensitised red cell (O Pos)<br />

Negative: - If there is no agglutination after adding<br />

AHG in Negative control test tube. METHOD :<br />

Valid: - If agglutination occurs in Negative test 1. Wash test red cells 3 times with saline & final<br />

or control after adding sensitised cell.<br />

wash properly.<br />

Invalid: - If agglutination doesn’t occur in 2. Take 2 drops of 3-4% washed test red cell in a<br />

Negative test or control after adding sensitised cell. clean pre-labeled glass tube.<br />

PRECAUTIONS<br />

3. Add 1-2 drops of AHG or coomb’s reagent.<br />

Cell and serum ratio should be proper (1:2)<br />

4. Mix & centrifuge at 1000 rpm <strong>for</strong> imitate.<br />

Incubation time (1hr) and temperature (37°C) 5. Gently shake the tube and read result.<br />

should be proper. 6. If the test result is negative, add 1 drop of control<br />

Decant last washing properly.<br />

cell.<br />

DIRECT ANTIGLOBULIN / COOMB’S TEST<br />

7. Mix and centrifuge at 1000 rpm <strong>for</strong> one minute<br />

and look <strong>for</strong> agglutination.<br />

Principle :- Red cell which is sensitised coated with<br />

incomplete antibody and complement binding<br />

INTERPRETATION : -<br />

antibodies in vivo will be agglutinated by the The test is called positive if agglutination appears<br />

antihuman globulin(AHG) / coomb’s reagent. after adding AHG reagent.<br />

USED IN<br />

The test is called Negative if there is no agglutination<br />

after adding AHG reagent.<br />

Diagnosis of Hemolytic disease of newborn (HDN)<br />

The test is called valid if agglutination occurs in<br />

Diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anaemia AIHA Negative test after adding sensitised cells.<br />

Investigation of drug induced red cell sensitised<br />

Investigation of hemolytic transfusion reaction.<br />

The test is called invalid if no agglutination occurs in<br />

Negative test after adding sensitised cells.<br />
