The document discusses the preparation and use of antihuman globulins (AHG) in performing the antiglobulin test. It describes the production of polyclonal and monoclonal AHG reagents and their advantages and disadvantages. It also outlines the principles and applications of the direct and indirect antiglobulin tests, including detecting IgG and complement coated red blood cells. Finally, it discusses factors that can affect the antiglobulin test and techniques for modifying and automating the test.

Advantages and disadvantages Introduction < Insert Figure 5-1> Antihuman globulins (AHGs) bind to human Monoclonal AHG production globulins. Advantages and disadvantages Source of AHGs < Insert Figure 5-2> IgG or complement Antibodies Required in AHG Free in serum or attached to RBC Anti-IgG activity must be present antigens Mixture of IgG1 and IgG3 subclasses IgM and IgG blood group antibodies Other nonagglutinating antibodies IgG antibodies nonagglutinating/incomplete encountered rarely Anti-complement activity History of the AHG Test (contd) Complement components detected by AHG AHG Test may be used to detect RBCs sensitized with Polyspecific vs. Monospecific AHG in the Indirect IgG alloantibodies Antiglobulin Test (IAT) IgG autoantibodies Most clinically significant antibodies are IgG Complement components Subject of ongoing debate: advantages and disadvantages in both approaches History of the AHG Test Influence of use of LISS and albumin Prior to AHG Test, only IgM antibodies Influence of complement activity detected IgG antibodies nonagglutinating or incomplete Principles of the Antiglobulin Test IgG monomeric structure, size Five basic principles of the Direct 19451946, Coombs and coworkers Antiglobulin Test (DAT) First used for Rh antibody detection RBCS coated in vivo with IgG and/or Later for other blood groups complement Coombs procedure for AHG production Applications in: HDN, HTR, and AIHA Sample should be collected in an AHG able to detect in vivo and in vitro anticoagulant such as EDTA sensitization of RBCs The DAT Panel In vivo: Direct Antiglobulin Test (DAT) One-stage procedure Evaluation of a Positive DAT In vitro: Indirect Antiglobulin Test (IAT) The AABB Technical Manual relevant sections Two-stage procedure Need for further testing in various clinical states
AHG Reagents The Indirect Antiglobulin Test (IAT)
Polyspecific AHG Detects in vitro sensitization of RBCs Specificities Clinical applications in Monospecific AHG Compatibility testing Anti-IgG RBC phenotyping Anti-Complement Titration of incomplete antibodies Factors Affecting the Antiglobulin Test The DAT can detect a level of 100 to 500 IgG molecules per RBC and 400 to 1100 molecules of C3d per RBC. For the IAT there must be between 100 and 200 IgG or C3 molecules on the cell to obtain a positive reaction. Ratio of serum to cells Reaction medium: albumin, LISS, PEG Temperature Incubation time Washing of RBCs Saline for washing Addition of AHG Centrifugation for reading
Most Common Sources of Error in the AHG Test
Inadequate washing Nonreactive AHG reagent Failure to add AHG reagent All negative antiglobulin test reactions must be checked by the addition of IgG-sensitized cells.
Modified and Automated Antiglobulin Test
Techniques Low ionic polybrene technique Enzyme-linked antiglobulin test Solid phase Gel test
Comparison of AHG Methodologies
Goal is to detect all clinically significant antibodies, both DAT and IAT types, and none of the clinically insignificant antibodies, such as warm- and cold-reacting autoantibodies.
