  • This study was purposed to produce blood typing reagents for classifing Cheju horse's blood group factors. The blood typing reagents were prepared by immunization of sixteen pairs out of fourty eight heads of Cheju horses, and seventeen different blood typing reagents (anti-$A_1$, A', H, Z, $ZZ_2$, C, J, K, $P_1$, Q, R, S, $T_1$, $N_1$, $U_2$, X and $E_2$) were prepared from equine isoimmunization. The result for the reagent production and the variation of agglutinin and hemolysin titer are as follows: 1. Anti-K, R, S, $N_1$, $U_2$ and X acted exclusively as hemolysins whereas anti-J, $P_1$, $T_1$ and $E_2$ acted exclusively as agglutinins, however, Anti-$A_1$, A', H, Z, $ZZ_2$, C and Q reacted both as hemolysins and agglutinins. 2. Among the antibodies in most of the reagents reacted both as hemolysins and agglutinins, But anti-$A_1$, H, Z, $ZZ_2$ and Q elevated higher agglutin titers than hemolysin titers, Anti-A' and anti-C elevated higher hemolysin titers than agglutinin titers. 3. Complex antibody $A_1U_2$ was adsorbed $U_2$ and unified to $A_1$, while complex antibody X $N_1$ went through an adsorption process and produced simple antibody X and $N_1$, respectively. 4. In the hemolytic reaction, anti-K and anti-R showed the highest titer, In the agglutination reaction, anti-Z and anti-$ZZ_2$ showed the highest titer. 5. In the case of No.138~No.140 horse immunization combination and No.133~No.146 horse immunization combination, Although production of complex antibody $CE_2$ and $JP_1$ were expected, only anti-$E_2$ and anti-J were produced respectively. 6. The degree of elevation of antibody titer was varied by the blood types and by the types of donor and recipient combination. The fast elevating types, slow elevating types and types that never elevate the antibody titer were identified.

  • Background: Despite modern advances in laboratory automated medicine, work-process in the blood bank is still handled manually. Several automated immunohematological instruments have been developed and are available in the market. The IH-1000 (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA, USA), a fully automated instrument for immunohematology, was recently introduced. In this study, we evaluated the performance of the IH-1000 for ABO/Rh typing and irregular antibody screening. Methods: In October 2011, a total of 373 blood samples for ABO/Rh typing and 303 cases for unexpected antibody screening were collected. The IH-1000 was compared to the manual tube and slide methods for ABO/Rh typing and to the microcolumn agglutination method (DiaMed-ID system) for antibody screening. Results: For ABO/Rh typing, concordance rate was 100%. For unexpected antibody screening, positive results for both column agglutination and IH-1000 were observed in 10 cases (four cases of anti-E and c, three of anti-E, one of anti-D, one of anti-M, and one of anti-Xg) and negative results for both were observed in 289 cases. The concordance rate between IH-1000 and column agglutination was 98.7%. Sensitivity and specificity were 90.9% and 99.3%, respectively. Conclusion: The automated IH-1000 showed good correlation with the manual tube and slide methods and the microcolumn agglutination method for ABO-RhD typing and irregular antibody screening. The IH-1000 can be used for routine pre-transfusion testing in the blood bank.

  • Background: An automated immunohematology analyzer, DAYMATE M (DAY Medical, Switzerland), has been recently developed. The potential of this analyzer to improve test results has been evaluated. Methods: A total of 300 blood samples from Seoul St. Mary's hospital and Incheon St. Mary's hospital were tested for ABO and RhD typing. In addition, 336 antibody screening test (AST) samples and 82 patients treated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) were included. AST results by DAYMATE M were compared with those obtained by a manual method using DS-Screening II (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Switzerland) and red blood cells from Selectogen (Ortho-Clinical diagnostics Inc., USA). Results: Of the 300 patients enrolled, 87, 73, 79, and 61 had type A, B, O, and AB blood, respectively. The concordance rate was 99.9% for cell typing and 97.0% for serum typing. One discordant case was classified as type B instead of AB, and six discordant serum-typing cases were type A, but classified as type AB. Among the 336 AST samples, the concordance rate was 93.2%. From 136 positive cases, six were discordant. Within the 82 HSCT-treated patients, the concordance rate for ABO blood typing was 92.2%. Among the six discordant cases, DAYMATE M typed four cases as donor type where the standard method typed them as the recipient blood type. Conclusions: The DAYMATE M automated immunohematology analyzer performs reliably for ABO and RhD typing, as well as for ASTs and on samples from patients treated with HSCT.

  • To determine the distribution of feline blood types and then to estimate the risk of neonatal isoerythrolysis (NI) in non-pedigree cats, we typed blood of 482 cats of both genders and various breeds (336 domestic shorthair cat and 146 pedigree) from August 2005 through July 2007. Blood samples from Seoul and Kangwon province were typed within 5 days after collection by the simple tube method. High-titer anti-A antiserum and anti-B reagent, prepared with Triticum vulgaris lectin, were used to determine type A and type B blood, respectively. The majority of cats were type A (n = 465, 96.5%) and only 3.5% (n = 17) were type B. No type AB blood were detected. Blood type distributions among the non-pedigree and pedigree cats were similar: for non-pedigree cats, 96.4% were type A and 3.6% were type B, whereas for pedigree cats, 96.6% were type A and 3.4% were type B. All type B cats had a very strong agglutination reaction to anti-A antiserum: 8 sample for 3+ and 9 for 4+. Assuming 19% of estimated frequency for the type-B allele in domestic cats, the calculated proportion of random mating from this population at risk for developing NI was 3.4%. Based on this finding, it is strongly recommended that blood typing be performed prior to any blood transfusion or breeding to minimize blood type incompatibilities. Further comprehensive studies on the titer of naturally occurring antibodies in cat populations in Korea and the prevalence of possible NI in practice are clearly required.

  • This study was carried out to investigate a usefulness of the microsatellite DNA markers for parentage verification of Thoroughbred (TB) horses. 9 TB horses samples were genotyped for nine international minimum standard markers (AHT4, 5, ASB2, HMS3, 6, 7, HTG4, 10, and VHL20), and the additional panel of four markers, ASB17, CA425, LEX33, and TKY321. This methods consisted of multiplexing PCR procedures, and it showed reasonable amplification of all PCR products. Genotyping was performed with an ABI 310 genetic analyzer. Foal I was excluded according to principles of Mendelian genetics in AHT4 (H/K), ASB2 (Q/Q), HMS3 (I/P), HTG4 (M/O), HTG1O (K/R), VHL20 (M/P), ASB17 (F/N), LEX33 (M/O), and TKY321 (G/I) markets. Foal II was excluded with markers AHT5 (K/M), ASB2 (M/N), HMS7 (N/N), HTG1O (K/K), VHL20 (I/I), ASB17 (F/F) and TKY321 (G/I). Foal III was excluded with markers AHT4 (O/O), AHT5 (K/K), ASB2 (M/R), HMS6 (M/P), HMS7 (O/O), HTG10 (R/S), VHL20 (L/M), and ASB17 (N/O). These results suggest that the present DNA typing is so useful for parentage verification of TB horses.

  • The emergence and spread of Staphylococcus aureus, which is resistant to quinolone antibacterial agents, has made it difficult to treat infectious diseases. Accordingly, this study examined the molecular epidemiological characteristics of quinolone-resistant S. aureus (QRSA) to obtain helpful data for treatment. Mutations in mecA and SCCmec typing, gyrA, and gyrB genes were investigated for QRSA strains isolated from the blood culture specimens at a general hospital in Daejeon Metropolitan City. The ciprofloxacin-resistant strains in SCCmec typing were II (44 strains, 73%), IVa (five strains, 8%), III, and V (one strain, 2%); the non-typeable strains (11 strains, 18%), and levofloxacin (LVX) and moxifloxacin (MXF) strains were II (44 strains, 73%), IVa (five strains, 8%), III, and V (one strain, 2%); the non-typeable strains were 10 (17%). In both gyrA and gyrB regions, there were 58 mutations, or 96.7%. In LVX, there were 56 mutations or 93.3%, and in MXF, there were 57 mutations or 95%. Twelve mutations, six mutations each in gyrA and gyrB, were identified for the QRSA strain. The resistance rate for the quinolone antibiotics of QRSA studied was approximately 98%, and 12 mutations, six each in gyrA and gyrB, were identified in the QRSA strain. Therefore, the rational use of antibiotics needs to be improved.
