A new preparation of modified immune serum globulin (human) suitable for intravenous administration. II. Functional characterization.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies, including daratumumab and isatuximab, often interfere with pretransfusion testing. Dithiothreitol (DTT) treatment of red blood cells (RBCs) negates this interference. However, the optimum DTT concentration and treatment time have not been well defined. Here, we...
