Class II Antibody Detection (PRA%)
This test detects the percentage of panel reactive antibodies (PRA) against Class II antigens. It is important in organ transplantation, as high PRA levels can increase the risk of rejection and complicate matching with potential donors.

- Percentage Of Hla Class Ii Antibodies Present In Recepient
The Class II Antibody Detection PRA Test detects the presence of panel-reactive antibodies (PRA) against HLA Class II antigens, typically performed before organ transplantation.
This test is recommended for:
- Patients awaiting organ transplantation.
- Individuals with a history of organ rejection.
Monitoring sensitization levels in transplant candidates.
A blood sample is analyzed using Luminex or flow cytometry techniques to identify Class II HLA antibodies.
- High PRA Level: Suggests increased risk of transplant rejection.
- Low/Negative PRA Level: Lower risk of antibody-mediated rejection.
Assessing PRA levels helps identify suitable organ donors and prevents transplant rejection.
