Abstract
Results of the phagocytosis assay with monocytes and erythrocytes sensitized with subclass specific anti-Rh(D) antibodies (IgG1, IgG3, IgG1+3) are dependent on the selection of sera used for sensitization. Phagocytic abilities expressed as the percentage of active monocytes as well as the number of interacting red cells requires a certain degree of the sensitization of erythrocytes and is higher if serum contains IgG3 antibodies.
