Antibody Screen An antibody screen is a laboratory test used to detect and identify antibodies in a person's blood. It is commonly performed during blood donation, pregnancy, or before a blood transfusion to determine the presence of unexpected antibodies that could potentially cause a transfusion ...

Of 4.234 unselected samples from pregnant women, screen-positive samples were reduced from 96 (2.27%) by the AA, to 56 (1.32%) by the SPH tests. This difference was due to the reduced number of false-positive reactions with the SPH tests, 0.47% compared to 1.44% with the AA. ...

Rather than creating a specifically designed molecule, it is also possible to iteratively create new recombinant molecules and screen and select the ones with desired immunological properties as vaccine candidates. This DNA shuffling method has been applied to a range of vaccine candidates including Plas...
antibody screen is helpful in this situation. Of note, 1 study demonstrated the detection of anti-D 4 months following transplantation in a recipient despite donor screen positivity for anti-D [27]. It seems that both passive and active responses, and possibly memory B-cell function, may ...
"We used CRISPR technology to carry out a genome-wide screen inleukemia cellsto block thousands of genes at once. This is an extremely powerful tool that allowed us to identify a multitude of genes that fuel leukemia growth and find new vulnerabilities that can be targeted in this disease,"...

16. The fluctuation of antiphospholipid antibody titers during pregnancy Several physiologic modifications occur during human gestation; in particular, the increased intravascular volume leads to hemodilution, which ultimately results in a lower plasma concentration of proteins, including antibodies. Almost all...
