Abstract
A SERIES of screening tests has been undertaken with a serum Ath. known to contain powerful saline-agglutinating antibodies against the rare Wright (Wra) and Swann (Swa) blood group factors. Control reagents were prepared by absorbing separate aliquots of the serum with known Wr(a +) and Sw(a +) cells. Samples found positive with the native serum were tested afterwards with these control reagents, so that Wr(a +) and Sw(a +) individuals were readily identified.
