|
The flow cytometric analysis of granulocyte antibodies is designed as a screening test to detect antibody reacting with random donor granulocytes. The assay will not distinguish antibodies directed against neutrophil specific antigens from those directed against HLA antigens. Differences in donor neutrophil antigen characteristics may result in some interassay variability.
