| Usage: |
For patients requiring solid organ transplants like liver or kidney, Complement Dependent Cytotoxicity (CDC) crossmatch is set up between recipient and donor to check for the presence of complement-dependent Anti HLA antibodies. Crossmatch is performed at 4°C to check for cold agglutinins and at room temperature for warm agglutinins. This test is also performed for all Cadaver donor transplants. |
