Toph reacted to Ensis01 in Repeat of donor Antigen typingThe policy at all places I have worked; to find antigen negative units in our inventory requires testing two different segments sequentially (not parallel). First segment is a screen and second is confirmation.

Toph reacted to Ensis01 in Repeat of donor Antigen typingIf you are screening unknown units in your inventory then a second confirmatory test on that unit is strongly advised.
If you receive labeled antigen negative units from your reference lab then believe their process and the label.
Retesting because a tech does not trust someone else’s work due to “comfort” seems to be a waste of time and money.
