PK®7300 Blood Grouping Reagents

Reagents PK7300 Blood Grouping Reagents

The Beckman Coulter PK7300 System Blood Grouping Reagents and Phenotyping Reagents are intended for the determination of blood ABO group and Rh type and Kell phenotypes in blood donors using the Beckman Coulter PK7300 System. The Anti-A, Anti-B and Anti-A,B reagents are used in the red blood cell determination of the ABO blood group. They are used to determine the absence or presence of erythrocytic antigens A and/or B on the surface of human red blood cells.

The Anti-D reagents: Anti-D, Anti-D (PK1) and Anti-D (PK2) are used to determine the Rh type. They are used to detect the presence of the D (Rh) antigen on the surface of human red blood cells. The Anti-C, Anti-E, Anti-c, Anti-e and Anti-K are used for Rh-Kell phenotyping of human red blood cells. These reagents detect the presence of antigens C,E,c,e and K on the surface of red blood cells.

The Beckman Coulter Control is devoid of human activity and should be used in parallel testing with the Beckman Coulter PK System Blood Grouping and Phenotyping reagents to differentiate between specific and non-specific agglutination.

PK®7300 Reagent Red Blood Cells

Reagents PK7300 Reagent Red Blood Cells

The Beckman Coulter PK System Reagent Red Blood Cells (A1 and B) are intended for the determination of the reverse or plasma group on the Beckman Coulter PK7300 analyzer.

The determination of an ABO Blood group is defined by demonstrating the presence or absence of antigens A and/or B on the surface of human red blood cells and detecting the presence or absence of Anti-A and/or Anti-B antibodies in the plasma. The red blood cell antigens are identified using the Beckman Coulter PK7300 System Blood Grouping Reagents: Anti-A, Anti-B and Anti-A,B (red blood cell or forward group). The Beckman Coulter PK System A1 and B (plasma or reverse group) confirm the preceding result by verifying the presence of the corresponding antibodies in the plasma by using known red blood cells.

PK® CMV-PA Systems & Controls

System & Controls PK CMV-PA Systems & Controls

The Beckman Coulter PK CMV-PA System is a passive particle agglutination assay intended for the qualitative detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to cytomegalovirus (CMV) in human plasma and serum from blood donors using the Beckman Coulter PK7300 System. The PK CMV-PA System has been developed to provide an indirect particle agglutination CMV assay using uniform reagents, which are stable and easy to handle. Automation has enhanced the value of the indirect particle agglutination test by significantly reducing the amount of time and labor needed to perform the assay.

PK® TP System & Controls

System & Controls PK TP System & Controls

The Beckman Coulter PK TP System is intended for the qualitative screening of blood donors for the detection of Treponema pallidum IgG and IgM antibodies in human serum or EDTA plasma using the Beckman Coulter PK7300 System. The identification of Treponema pallidum antibodies aids in the diagnosis of syphilis caused by the microorganisms belonging to the genus Treponema and provides epidemiologic information on syphilis. The Beckman Coulter PK TP System has been developed to provide uniform reagents, which are stable and easy to handle. Automation has significantly reduced the amount of time and labor needed to perform the assay.
