Summary. Antomated antibody screening has been performed on donor bloods for six months, using a filter paper model Antoanalyzer and a specially built automatic pooler for an antiglobulin technie. This combined system screens donor blood for antibodies which react by either enzymes or anti‐human globulin methods. The method appears to be fast and sensitive and to be adaptable to the procedures at a large blood center.
