Gel crossmatch test, dog
A commercial gel test used for a major crossmatch in a dog. Three potential blood donors were tested. Gel tube A shows a compatible result between donor RBCs and recipient plasma, with the RBCs forming a pellet at the bottom of the tube. Tubes B and C show incompatible reactions between donor RBCs and recipient plasma, causing agglutination and entrapment of RBCs within the gel matrix.
