Antibody Screening (FDA Approved)
Transfuse with confidence while experiencing how simple and efficient screening for unexpected antibodies can be.
Antibody Screening
Predicting if patients have antibodies that could be incompatible with donor red blood cells is easy with Grifols solutions. A variety of reliable tests with increasing complexity mean you can create testing strategies from serology all the way through to genotyping giving you control in gel, in tube and, in DNA testing.
