Test Overview
Hemagglutination
The amount of isohemagglutinin activity in the serum of the kidney transplant recipient is important information in cases of major ABO incompatible kidney transplantation as it may impact graft survival. IgG isohemagglutinins are titrated. Anti-A or Anti-B is titered based on the donor and recipient blood types.
* Reference ranges may change over time. Please refer to the original patient report when evaluating results.
