22 June 2016 (Wednesday) - Cw

We had a case of anti-Cw in the lab today. I was always under the impression that the Cw antigen was allelic to the C and c antigens. The boss was under the impression that it wasn’t.

I did a little looking up and found an article on-line which said that neither the Cw antigen (nor the Cx antigen) were allelic to the C and c antigens. Mind you it didn’t really go into much detail as to what the antigens were, so much as what they were not.
