ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To detect platelet anti-HPA-1a and -1b antibodies using recombinant GPIIIa fragments coupled to Luminex beads.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The sensitivity of 2 techniques, monoclonal antibody specific immobilization of platelet antigen (MAIPA) and Luminex bead assay, was compared using 12 twofold-serial dilutions (from neat to 1 in 2048) of an anti-HPA-1a WHO international standard. The specificity of Luminex assay to identify anti-HPA-1a and -1b antibodies was assessed using 8 negative or positive controls and 36 blinded samples provided by WHO Platelet Workshop.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The sensitivity of MAIPA and Luminex bead assay to detect anti-HPA-1a was dilution 1/64 (i.e. 1.56 IU/ml) and far more than dilution 1/2048 (i.e. 0.049 IU/mL), respectively. The Luminex bead assay could specifically identify negative and positive controls of anti-HPA-1a and -1b. All results of 36 blinded samples by Luminex assay were accordant to reference results except one sample which contained high concentration antithetical antibody and resulted in false positive of anti-HPA-1b. Cross-reactivity was also not observed with the samples containing HLA, ABO or other platelet antibodies.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The Luminex beads coupled with recombinant GPIIIa fragments can be used to detect HPA-1 system antibodies with sufficient sensitivity and specificity, that is suitable for the detection of platelet alloantibodies in clinical alloimmune thrombocytopenia.</p>
