Two blood tests can check for antibodies that attack red blood cells: the direct Coombs test and the indirect Coombs test. The direct Coombs test is done on a sample of red blood cells from the body. It detects antibodies that are already attached to red blood cells.
1 Marker: A specific place on a chromosome with two or more forms, called alleles, the inheritance of which can be followed from one generation to the next. 2  In Y-chromosome DNA testing, this refers to non-coding Y-chromosome DNA.3  Numbers designate the individual DNA segments. For example, in humans, one allele of the eye-color gene produces blue eyes and another allele of the eye-color gene produces brown eyes. 2  Administrator: Also known as a Project Administrator, Group Project Administrator, Project Manager, Coordinator and Co-Coordinator.
