What brand of cell panels do you use for antibody identification (0,8-1%)?

Hi! The new IVDR regulation means all of our reagents need to be CE certified by may 2025. This causes us great trouble since a lot of our reagents and test cells are either prepared in-house, or acquired from nearest reference lab (who, in turn, produce them theirselves without CE certification).

So, I probably need to find new test cells for antibody identification pretty soon. What producers are there? I know of Labex, Ortho, XboX lab, Nordic Biolabs and Tulip (indian). We'd like to continue using gel cards, so the panel needs to be 0,8-1%.

Please help!

Don't whoever makes your gelcards produce reagent cells too?

When I worked for NHSBT we used BioVue cells on BioVue cards and BioRad cells on BioRad cards.

Yes, we use BioRad gelcards and I know of their panel, looking for others as well, trying to "get to know the market". It might not be as large as I'd hoped though :) Hope to avoid cassettes (ie biovue) Thanks!

We use NHSBT 10 cell panel in Cellstab as our secondary. They also do enzyme treated version. (and 3% NISS version). We have to attach our own barcodes to use them on the IH500 and you might have to talk to BioRad to ask if they can install software to let you use the cells.

Scottish NBS also produce a panel I believe.
