There is a need for specific determination of blood group antigens on erythrocytes for improvement of the quality of hemotransfusion therapy. O, A, B, AB, and weak variants of A and B antigen (O washed erythrocytes with anti‐A or anti‐B antibody absorbing ability) were investigated for electrophoretic mobility with immunoglobulin G complement‐dependent antibodies. The contact of anti‐A heated serum and complement with A erythrocytes resulted in their decreased electrokinetic potential the contrary to the serum without anti‐A and anti‐B antibodies and increased after addition of the serum from O blood group person with anti‐A and anti‐B absorbing ability. Anti‐B heated serum with complement decreased electrokinetic potential of B erythrocytes. Whereas both anti‐A heated serum and serum from AB person with complement did not decrease the electrokinetic potential of O erythrocytes. Anti‐B heated serum, in the same manner, decreased the electrokinetic potential of O blood group erythrocytes with anti‐B absorbing ability. Anti‐А immunoglobulin G complement‐dependent antibodies decreased the electrokinetic potential of washed O erythrocytes with аnti‐A absorbing ability contrary to immunoglobulin M antibodies. Evaluation of the electrokinetic potential of erythrocytes with a set of immunoglobulin G complement‐dependent antibodies might be considered for blood group type detection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
