Serologic Crossmatching

Crossmatching mimics transfusion by mixing recipient serum & donor cells. Clumping (agglutination) indicates incompatibility, preventing transfusion reactions.

Flow Cytometry Immunophenotyping of Blood

Blood cells stained with fluorescent antibodies reveal hidden markers, like a cellular fingerprint. Flow cytometry analyzes millions of cells, painting a detailed picture of immune health, disease clues, and treatment insights.

Hematopoietic cell surface markers

Surface markers, also known as clusters of differentiation (CDs), act like identifying badges for different types of white blood cells.
