A sample from a 55-year-old white male donor demonstrated a positive antibody screen during routine processing testing. The antibody identification panel's results are shown. Refer to the panel to answer the following questions: 1. What phase in the panel is showing antibody reactivity? 2. What does this reaction phase suggest regarding the immunoglobulin class of antibody? 3. Is this antibody an alloantibody or an autoantibody? Defend your answer. 4. What is the antibody's most likely specificity? 5. Are there antibodies that cannot be ruled out on this panel? 6. What additional testing should be performed to verify the specificity? 7. What caused the antibody production in this donor? 8. Referring to the antigen, which panel cell or cells are homozygous for the S antigen? 9. Which panel cell is probably U-negative? Defend your answer.
