Detection of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika RNA in blood donors from Southeast Asia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The major cause of fetal hemolytic disease is maternal immunization to D in D-incompatible pregnancies. To prevent complications, D-incompatible pregnancies are monitored for the level of maternal anti-D. At present, the monitoring of anti-D levels is performed by the indirect antiglobulin test complemented ...
