Across Gel® Quality Control

ABO / Rh (D) grouping is used in extensive quality control by detecting Rh phenotype, K antigen and screening irregular antibodies. Internal controls have to be performed regularly according to the local and national regulations. When test results come out as expected, it means that test procedures are performed correctly and, reagents and equipments produce correct results. When unexpected results are observed, patient test results have to be stopped and the source of error can be tracked.
