Abstract
Blood tran5fu~!on ha5 been faced b~ many problems
in the fo:tM ofl thel daily increaae for blood qroup
serology and the n~ed for improving mails blood scree-
~ing technics in the preaenc!! of few tra inl’!d t.echnicLan.
In additon to that. the most manual technical
steps~ in blood group serology can involve inaccurate.
laboratione, reading of the result ~nd clerical errors.
All these previo~s problems have led to the
develQpment of autOll\atic equipment tl::l be u.sed in
the field of blood tran8fueion.
In this study an ev~luation of the automatic
blOOd grouping machines has been presented in detai],
in addition to short not~~ on other m~chin~s used
in cell wa5h. cell eaparation ana 6ampling.
1’he study of antolli!l.tic blood grouping machinea
ghcws the capabi Li,ty of these equipments. the great
reliability and the aOcuracy when compared to routine
manual procedure Ln th~ fQllowing fields:
~_ ABO hlood grouping with recognition of subgrol,lp

In add1tion to these advanta~e~ of automQtic

TO achieve the previous advantage of automatic
equipment, the following must be respected:
1- Instruction of the ~nufacture6 must be obeyed.
2- suitable equipment for the suitab1e place.
