Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods for the determination of minor cell populations in heterogeneous cell populations.
- the methods are for enrichment and quantification of the minor cell population in heterogeneous cell populations such as fetomaternal hemorrhage; for the parallel determination of cell-bound analytes and thus for the determination of both cell populations in mixed field reactions after transfusion, in fetomaternal hemorrhage or in so-called chimeras; to detect an analyte present in low concentration on cells; and / or for determining the hematocrit value.
- a device suitable for the method is provided.
- FMH fetal hemorrhage
- the standard dose of anti-D therapy is no longer sufficient protection.
- standard immunization in the USA is 250 to 300 ⁇ g of anti-D (IgG), which results in sufficient prevention in a pregnant woman whose circulation has been transferred to 15 ml of fetal erythrocytes, ie 25 to 30 ml of fetal blood.
- the standard dose administered is often lower, namely 100 to 150 ⁇ g anti-D (IgG), which protects at an FMH of 8-10 mL.
- Any device that provides anti-D prophylaxis must use a method that detects a larger FMH than usual (Issitt PD and Anstee DJ., Applied Blood Group Serology [4 th edition], Montgomery Scientific Publications.) Chapter 41: Hemolytic disease of the newborn, pp. 1045-1050.
- This test is based on the detection of erythrocyte aggregates and their microscopic evaluation. Detection of the fetal D antigen.
- This test is based on the higher resistance of fetal erythrocytes to acid elution and its microscopic evaluation. Detection of fetal cells.
- D antigen or hemoglobin F is labeled with appropriate antibodies and detected via fluorescent second antibody. Detection of fetal D antigen / hemoglobin. Garratty G, Arndt P. Transfusion 1995; 35: 157. Davis bra. Clin Lab Med 2001; 21: 829.
- the test is the first test to determine an FMH based on a routine blood typing method (gel technique). It is based on the consumption of anti-D reagent by fetal erythrocytes. The reaction supernatant is incubated with D-positive test cells and centrifuged in the gel test. Detection of Fetal D Antigen Lapierre Y, Rigal D, Adam J, Josef D, Meyer F, Greber S, Drot C. Transfusion 1990; 30: 109. David M, Stelzer A, Wittmann G, Dudenhausen JW, Salama A. Z Obstetrics Neonatol 1999; 203: 241st
- D antigen Another challenge for donor and recipient serology are weak or partial forms of the D antigen. Thanks to monoclonal antibodies and confirmation in the Indirect Coombs test, the typing of such weak blood groups appeared to be ensured until the DEL phenotype was described, which represents a particularly weak D expression ("normal” D: 10-30,000 antigens per erythrocyte (RBC ) D weak: 400 to 1000, DEL: ⁇ 30).
- DEL can only be detected indirectly with extremely complex adsorption-elution tests comprising up to 10 washes.
- DEL is of relevance for transfusion medicine, as D recipients of a DEL person can train anti-D antibodies. The problem is so worrying that it is currently being discussed in the scientific community, whether the D status of all (serological) D donors should be verified by molecular methods.
- Transfusions should always be ABO same or compatible and D compatible. In certain cases, z. It is clinically indicated, for example, in pre-transfused patients, to transfuse same blood groups for other antigens. However, it is never possible to transfect blood group-identical in all blood groups (exception: autologous transfusion). As a result, after transfusions, the situation regularly arises that a person is diagnostically positive and negative for certain blood group characteristics. In diagnostics, so-called mixed-field reactions are found, as can be well detected by sensitive methods - especially those that can spatially separate individual erythrocytes and hemagglutinates during detection.
- erythrocytes of our example are centrifuged through such an anti-K column, most of the cells will sediment on the bottom because they are K- and a small part will be held on or in the gel (K +), which corresponds to the detection of the above-described mixing field. If such erythrocytes are applied to the MDmulticard (Medion Diagnostics) as above, then a weak band in anti-K is also detectable. However, in contrast to the gel technique, the method disclosed in WO2005005991 can not simultaneously visualize the negatively reacting cell population. All other methods of the prior art have no properties comparable to the gel systems and the MDmulticard for the detection of mixed-field reactions.
- the hematocrit or the total volume of erythrocytes expresses the volume-related proportion of erythrocytes in comparison to the total volume in whole blood in percent.
- the volume of erythrocyte in the whole blood is influenced by the volume and the number of erythrocytes.
- the hematocrit can typically be determined by centrifugation of blood-filled capillaries (Strumia MM, Samble AB, Hart ED, 1954, Am J Clin Path, 24: 1016), by centrifugal displacement setting the proportion of sedimented cellular components in relation to the total volume.
- the hematocrit can be determined using electrical impedance methods.
- the current flowing in an electrolyte solution between anode and cathode current is influenced by particles of other conductivity, which enter the stream.
- the current changes are registered as pulses. From a certain pulse amplitude can be closed on a certain particle size and in hematology so that on a particular cell type, such as red blood cells. From a summation of pulses per volume measured, the cell count and hematocrit can be deduced (Sysmex KX-21N Operator's Manual, 1999).
