“…In this study, the concordance rate between DNA‐based testing and serologic confirmation was 0.9997, similar to a 0.9995 concordance rate observed in a comparison of 356 reagent donor RBCs analyzed by hemagglutination and genotype using the same high‐throughput DNA platform used here . Fifty‐seven patients (11.5%) had at least one serologic discrepancy noted, compared to studies in multiply transfused patients with thalassemia and SCD that reported serologic and DNA‐predicted phenotype discrepancies in 36% to 51% of individuals . The lower rate of discordant results in this study likely reflects the policy of obtaining an extended RBC phenotype by age 1 year before any transfusion and systematically obtaining the RBC phenotype after a hypotonic saline wash if a patient was recently transfused.…”

“…In transfusion medicine, SNP typing is a powerful adjunct to serologic testing and is the best method for typing transfused patients . Recent study has shown that molecular matching of patients and RBC units reduced alloimmunization risks .…”

“…Moreover, the presence of antibodies is a limitation to haemagglutination which is the traditional method for testing donor and patient blood group antigens and irregular antibodies. To overcome this problem, genotyping tests have been developed and their benefit in patients care has been reported in a number of clinical setting .…”

“…Studies comparing serology and genotyping in multitransfused population such as patients with thalassaemia and SCD have shown that genotyping is superior to serology for resolving discrepancies [31][32][33][34][35]. Use of genotyped matched units has been shown to decrease alloimmunization rates [36], increase hemoglobin levels and in vivo RBC survival, and diminish frequency of transfusions [37][38][39].…”
