Papain ‐treated panels are a simple method for the identification of alloantibodies in multiple myeloma patients treated with anti‐CD38‐based therapies
ConclusionAnti‐CD38 MAs produce nonspecific interference in blood bank tests. This interference can be overcome by various methods, including DTT or papain treatment as proposed here. These methods have limitations that can be resolved using phenotyped blood units. (Source: Transfusion Medicine)

Retrospective analysis of HDFN due to ABO incompatibility in a single institution over 6 years
ConclusionsSerological ABO HDFN is a relatively frequent event when an O‐A/O‐B incompatibility between mothers and their newborn occurs and, in most cases, translates into a self‐limiting disease, with a small number of newborns requiring invasive treatments. The DAT test, although not predictive of disease severity, appears to be a useful tool to monitor babies born from O‐A/O‐B‐incompatible pregnancies and to identify those who may require treatment.
