Platelet Antibody Screening

Platelet detection allows laboratories to determine compatibility between patient and donor prior to platelet transfusion.

Platelet detection allows laboratories to determine compatibility between patient and donor prior to platelet transfusion. Our complete portfolio includes a variety of products for platelet antibody screening. 

Capture-P® & Capture-P® Ready-Screen®

Platelet Detection with Options for Your Lab

Werfen’s complete platelet portfolio consists of two Capture-P products that allow your laboratory to complete platelet antibody detection (e.g., antibody screening or crossmatching) with the same methodology utilized for your routine red cell antibody screening.

Capture-P Ready-Screen​​

  • Detects platelet-specific and HLA antibodies.
  • Test wells are coated with platelets from 13 different donors so no platelets are required for testing.

Capture-P​​

  • Utilized for platelet antibody detection (e.g., antibody screening or crossmatching).
  • Provides quick results – samples are screened in as little as 25 minutes.​​

Pak Plus®

HLA/HPA Antibody Detection Assays for Improved Patient Care

  • The PakPlus assay allows a user to detect antibodies that bind to the platelet-specific glycoproteins (IIb/IIIa, Ib/IX, Ia/IIa and IV) and Class I HLA.
  • Detecting these antibodies offers the clinician the potential to better identify compatible blood products and improve patient care.

Pak Lx™

Save Time - Get Multiple Results With One Reaction

  • Werfen’s Pak Lx product is a Luminex® based assay designed to detect and differentiate between IgG antibodies to Human Platelet Antigen (HPA-1, HPA-2, HPA-3, HPA-4, HPA-5, and GPIV) and Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) Class I in human serum. 
  • Data analysis is performed using the MATCH IT!® Platelet Antibody Software.​

PakAuto®

Auto-Antibody Detection for Improved Patient Care

  • PakAuto has been designed to detect autoantibodies to patient glycoproteins. These antibodies are eluted from the patient’s own platelets or found circulating in plasma.
  • Detecting these antibodies offers the clinician the potential to better identify compatible blood products and improve patient care.

MATCH IT! Platelet Antibody Analysis Software​​​​​​​​​​

Streamline Your Data Analysis

The MATCH IT! Platelet Antibody Software is an accessory required for the evaluation of test results from Werfen’s Pak Lx Assay.

  • Ability to differentiate at the HPA level.
  • Various reporting options and formats.
  • Automatic import of data into MATCH IT! Software –  streamlining workflow for easy results interpretation.

Product offerings may differ by region, please check with your local Werfen representative for regulatory status in your area.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

PakAuto is not available in the United States.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Pak Lx is For Research Use Only in the United States.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our facility has a solid organ transplant program and performs a high number of ABO titers. We were performing these titers using manual tube method, which is both time-consuming and highly dependent on using proper technique. We have many generalists rotate through the blood bank. It was difficult for us to maintain competency and consistency performing ABO titers. Automating titers has freed up our techs to perform other tasks as well as give the physician a more accurate and reproducible result.

Having the automated Echo Lumena has impacted our blood bank in many ways. It has freed up our time to accomplish other tasks while testing is running. With the Echo Lumena interfaced to our blood bank software, we were able to eliminate opportunities for clerical errors.
