    Hi! I do not know which gel card supplier you are using, but the one I “know” use 50ul of A1 and B cells with 25ul of plasma and an incubation at 37°C for 15 minutes. And all of this in an AHG gel card of course… having previously checked as well there is no additional antibody that could interfere (result from mother if available/antibody screening result). Hope it helps.

    In this context (post transfusion with DAT pos, screening neg), would be worth running/trying an elution?
  33. Arno
    Should be HbS negative as decreasing the proportion of HbS (compared to HbA) prevents complications/crisis of SCD related to vaso-occlusion. So not only for crisis but to prevent the crisis. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/bjh.14346

    Hi there! I hope you are all doing well. The Italian blood transfusion society has made the screening of Covid-19 patient for IgA deficiency systematic before the transfusion of convalescent plasma. http://isbtweb.org/fileadmin/user_upload/Italy.pdf Would like to know what is your position in this regards and is there any similar existing guidelines? Thank you in advance
