GENOTYPING

Blood Group Genotyping

AFMS Partners with GRIFOLS to provide Blood Group Genotyping systems to help determine blood groups in individuals who may not be able to be typed with traditional blood grouping methods due to recent transfusions, autoantibodies, or other limitations.

Blood group genotyping for human erythrocyte antigens overcomes blood grouping limitations by looking directly into the DNA sequence and thereby avoiding any donor cell or patient antibody interference. Additional benefits of blood group genotyping include improved transfusion compatibility and reduced alloimmunization.

Bloodchip ID

BLOODchip ID

Quickly progress from DNA to results

A multiplex blood group genotyping family of products based on Luminex technology; including kits for the main allelic variants of red blood cells (ID CORE XT, ID RHD XT), human platelet antigens (ID HPA XT), a positive control for ID CORE XT (ID CORE CONTROL), and an accompanying software (BIDS XT).

BLOODchip ID Assays

ID CORE XT

  Blood Group Genotyping Assay

Detects 29 polymorphisms determining 37 red blood cell antigens

  • Determining the presence or absence of blood groups in chronically and recently transfused patients
  • Screening routine donors
  • Selecting compatible donors

ID CORE XT Antigen Panel

ID RHD XT

  Blood Group Genotyping Assay

Detects 6 polymorphisms determining 6 RHD variants and HPA-1

  • Determining the presence or absence of weak D subtyping to rationalize the use of D negative blood units
  • Determining the presence or absence of weak D pregnant women subtyping to avoid unnecessary RhIG injections
  • Confirmation of D negative donors

ID RHD XT Variant Panel

ID HPA XT

Human Platelet Antigen (HPA) Genotyping Assay

Detects 13 polymorphisms determining 12 HPA systems

  • Determining the presence or absence of platelet antigens in both patients & donors
  • Performing large-scale donor typing for the provision of antigen-negative platelets
  • Help select compatible platelet donors for refractory or alloimmunized patients
  • Post-transfusion purpura and platelet transfusion refractoriness

ID HPA XT Antigen Panel

ID CORE CONTROL

Positive control for ID CORE XT

2 clones including testing for all allele A and B of all polymorphisms tested in ID CORE XT.

  • Standardization of the system quality control processes
  • Practical; already commercially available
  • Allows control of all tested alleles

 

ID Core Control

PDP 36 05 BLOODchip ID 2x

BIDS XT

Software solution to accompany ID CORE XT and ID HPA XT kits

Keep track of activity with BIDS XT's comprehensive database for samples, clinical information, and test results.

  • Register all actions performed by users
  • Plate configuration, kit and enzyme lot, and registration functions help users trace sample, reagents, and results
  • Worksheet printouts with calculated volumes support users with the procedure
  • Friendly and detailed reports and raw data graphs provide a detailed comprehension of results
