4 Blood Typing Reagents and its Technology Development Direction and Status of Market Development

4.1 Main Products and Manufacturers of Domestic Blood Typing Reagents

At present, domestic blood typing reagent-related products already covered ABO blood typing, test of Rh and other irregular antibodies, and anti-human globulin test. They can conduct forward and reverse human blood ABO blood group typing, Rh (D/C/E) blood group typing, irregular antibody screening, and cross-matching of blood test, which can meet requirements of clinical blood typing. MGT has been extensively used in blood typing; the regent card has been added various blood group antibodies to gel, and it only needs to add samples to realize typing during the test. The technique boasts of high sensitivity, easy standardization, easy observation and retention, and it has become the first choice for clinical ABO and Rh (D) Blood typing and cross-matching of blood test.

Domestic blood typing reagents have come into were introduced to the market successively in the recent three years, which opened up a new prospect for Blood typing reagents and enriched Blood typing reagent market. New items and new methods mainly include anti-human globulin test, irregular antibody test, newborn blood typing, and erythrocyte genotyping. It can be seen that domestic blood typing reagent manufacturer kept up with the pace of R&D of imported product manufacturers, actively engaged in innovation and creation, and made breakthroughs in genotyping methods. Human erythrocyte ABO blood group genotyping kit polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-­ SSP) and human erythrocyte RhD genotyping kit (PCR-SSP) products already received approval for marketing, and they are used for test of ABO and RhD alleles in DNA of human erythrocyte genome, which can identify rare blood groups and help doctors acquiring more accurate and more comprehensive blood group results. See partial domestic Blood typing reagents in Table 2.
