Coombs’ Direct Antiglobulin Test Among Individuals Co-Infected with Malaria and HIV in Iwo Community, Southwestern Nigeria
In the present study, direct antiglobulin test (DAT) was performed using poly-antiglobulin serum on a total of 138 individuals; 20 of whom had HIV infection only, 50 malaria only, 18 both malaria and HIV and 50 non-infected with either malaria or HIV in order to determine the effect of co-infection with malaria and HIV on DAT status.

متن کاملDiscrepancy in ABO blood grouping.
Discrepancies in blood typing is one of the major reasons in eliciting a transfusion reaction. These discrepancies can be avoided through detailed analysis for the blood typing. Here, we report a subgroup of blood group type-B in the ABO system. Donor's blood was analyzed by employing commercial antisera for blood grouping. The results of forward (known antisera) and reverse (known antigen) rea...

متن کاملDiscrepancy in ABO Blood Grouping in a Blood Donor: A Case Report
Detection of ABO blood groups through agglutination is the basis of pre-transfusion testing. However, weak agglutination reactions may be obtained with reagent antibodies and are a result of weak expression of A and B antigens on red blood cell surface which may cause a discrepancy in blood group typing. Here, we report a donor which showed discrepancy between red blood cells (forward) and seru...
