Gel card technology

DG Gel cards organize your antibody investigation and make testing efficient no matter the size of your lab

DG Gel cards are the original 8-column column agglutination technology (CAT). DG Gel cards paired with high-quality reagents facilitate efficient antibody identification in any workflow. Screen blood quickly and safely for antibodies, common and rare and in all testing configurations. DG Gel cards and wide selection of rRBC deliver efficient results for every lab and can grow as your volume increases.
