Antibody reagents have been remained as a standard approach to characterize blood group (BG) antigens in clinic. The specificity and cross-reactivity of these BG antibodies are routine detected using the gel microcolumn assay (GMA). However, the GMA is neither specific nor sensitive, thus increasing the risk of improperly matched RBC transfusions. In this work, we describe a bead-based RBC membrane antigen array to detect BG antibody-antigen binding with ∼700-fold higher sensitivity and dynamic range than the GMA. RBC membrane antigen arrays were fabricated using fragmented RBC membranes highly enriched in BG panel antigens. The arrays were then used to screen the interactions of 15 BG reagents to three antigen panels. The majority of the antibody reactions (i.e., 86.7%; 39/45) aligned with those obtained with the GMA. The six cross-reactive, nonspecific antibody reactions identified only by our arrays (i.e., 13.3%; 6/45) were confirmed by agglutination inhibition and genotyping assays. These results demonstrate that our RBC membrane antigen array has great potential in screening BG antibodies and improving the safety of RBC transfusions.
