identifi cation, ABO blood grouping and Rh phenotyping, compatibility testing, reverse serum grouping and antigen typing, all using proven serologic methods.
The ID-MTS™ Gel Test offers many advantages over traditional methods:
Proven sensitivity and specifi city • No-wash antiglobulin procedure • Standardized procedures • Improved turnaround time Enhanced cGMP compliance
Safe. Cost effective. Easy to use.
Because the ID-Micro Typing System™ Gel Test requires fewer procedural steps, it’s easy to perform and cost effective. Plus, reduced handling means fewer operator errors and more objective interpretation of results. Testing is performed in a prefi lled card containing gel mixed with the appropriate reagent. Simply pipet, incubate, spin and read. Results are ready to report, without the need for cell washing, red cell resuspension or tube shaking. The result is optimized utilization of personnel, simplified training and increased cross-training opportunities for improved productivity and greater workfl ow effi ciency.
Sensitivity, specifi city and standardization.
The ID-Micro Typing System™ Gel Test offers proven sensitivity, specifi city and standardization for blood bank serological testing. The gel test eliminates technique- dependent variables which can affect test sensitivity and specifi city. Clear, stable, well-defi ned endpoints mean objective, consistent and reproducible interpretation of test results. What’s more, the ID-MTS™ Gel Test helps laboratories to enhance cGMP compliance through standardized procedures and simplified training. Minimal handling of reagents and samples increases biosafety. And test performance verifi cation, validation guidance and a NCCLS-formatted template are provided to facilitate an easy implementation.
