Revealing and quantifying polyclonal anti-A,B specificity in ABO histo-blood groups

The clinically significant antibody anti-A,B together with anti-A and anti-B has been known for many decades to be present in blood group O plasma. As anti-A,B is only reactive when an A or B antigen is present, its contribution to titer cannot be easily distinguished from anti-A and/or anti-B.
