Has hemaagglutination test.

Question 20

Erytype S test

Answer 20

Pre-coated with Anti-sera and immunor core added antisera in well

Question 21

SPRCA assays will put

Question 46

Immucor has what reagents

Answer 46

LIST, ABO, and Indicator cells.

Question 47

Provue you add in ( gel automation)

Answer 47

all of the RBCs so if you have a positive you dont have room to do another panel because it will take up all the reagents on the instruments that is a down side cant continously run to do antibody ID.
