Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Flow cytometry is increasingly being used for the comparison of antigen density. Indirect immune fluorescence is more sensitive than direct immune fluorescence and thus allows the study of red cells (RBCs) with a weak D antigen. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: In indirect immune fluorescenc...
