Identification of a novel A2 allele derived from the A transferase gene through a nucleotide substitution G539C.

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...
