Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a red blood cell (RBC) solution comprising ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and methods for making and using the same. The solution can comprise EDTA at a concentration from 3-5 g/L, including 4 g/L. Well plates prepared using the solution can provide a decreased rate of false positive results in automated immunoassays for detecting RBC antibodies in a patient sample.
