Study Notes
ABO Kit and Monoclonal Antibodies
- Monoclonal antibodies in the ABO kit help identify the blood type of a sample.
- The monoclonal antibody against Antigen A (Anti-A) is blue.
- The monoclonal antibody against Antigen B (Anti-B) is red.
Control Group and Sample Preparation
- Leaving a drop of blood without adding any antibodies serves as a control to verify the accuracy of the test.
- Monoclonal antibody bottles should be stored in a cool, dry place.
Blood Transfusion and Monoclonal Antibodies
- The success of a blood transfusion is determined by the compatibility of the blood types.
- If RBCs carry the corresponding antigen, agglutination occurs when monoclonal antibodies are added to wells containing the test sample.
Anti-AB and Anti-D
- The Anti-AB monoclonal antibody is purple.
- Anti-D is an antigen found on the surface of red blood cells.
Biosensors and COVID-19 Rapid Test Kits
- Biosensors are devices that detect and measure biological responses.
- Types of COVID-19 rapid test kits mentioned include nucleocapsid protein and spike protein kits.
- Biosensors in COVID-19 rapid test kits detect the presence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies or antigens.
Home Pregnancy Test Kit
- The home pregnancy test kit works by detecting the presence of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone in urine.
- The secondary antibody in the pregnancy test kit binds to hCG, causing a color change.
- hCG is a hormone produced during pregnancy.
General Concept and Biosensors
- The general concept behind biosensors is to detect and measure biological responses.
- Biosensors contain biological elements (e.g., antibodies, enzymes) that interact with the sample applied.
