Ripley-like serum and other anti-Rh sera in detection of Fc receptor-bearing human lymphocytes.

Three anti-Rh sera useful for the EAhum test were found (one comparable to Ri serum). It was shown that the usefulness of anti-Rh sera for the EAhum test depends on the amount of anti-Rh antibodies absorbed onto red cells demonstrated in the manual antiglobulin test. It does not depend on the quality of antibodies and the ability of complement binding.
