- Abstract
Antibodies against only about 25-28 blood group antigens are known to cause hemolytic reactions (HTRs), and red cell antibody screening should detect such clinically significant antibodies. An extension of the antibody screening test is the 'type and screen' done to detect clinically significant antibodies, omiting the anti-human globulin (AHG) cross-match.
