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 />
