An MLS performs an antibody screen using the tube method with PeG enhancement. The MLS centrifuges and reads reactions at IS, incubates at 37 C with PeG, centrifuges and reads reactions at 37 C, washes 3 times, adds AHG reagent, centrifuges and reads reactions at AHG, and adds check cells to appropriate tubes. Are the results of this antibody screen acceptable and able to be reported?
