Abstract
The use of standard slide or tube techniques for the determination of red blood cell phenotypes is rather cumbersome and requires a large amount of work which can be the reason of clerical errors. In order to avoid these problems, microtiter techniques have been included in our routine paternity tests for the definition of alloantigens of the erythrocyte membrane. The comparison of the results obtained by the microtiter methods and standard techniques is shown in this report.
