Blood Banking Support
Supporting your clinic's transfusion capabilities
Practical support and diagnostic tools for veterinary professionals involved in blood typing, crossmatching, donor collection and blood component preparation.
Veterinary blood banking in practice
Veterinary blood banking requires reliable products, practical protocols and dependable access to supplies. Australian Animal Blood Bank provides Alvedia diagnostic products and veterinary blood collection systems to support clinics with blood typing, compatibility testing, donor blood collection and blood component preparation.
Blood typing and compatibility testing
Blood typing and compatibility testing are important components of veterinary transfusion practice. Alvedia blood typing kits provide convenient in-clinic testing for canine and feline patients, while crossmatch testing can help assess compatibility between donor and recipient blood prior to transfusion.
Donor blood collection
Veterinary donor blood collection requires appropriate collection systems designed for clinical use. Our Alvedia 60 mL Single and Double Blood Bags provide practical collection options for feline donors, with the Double Blood Bag also supporting blood component preparation.
Blood component preparation
Blood component preparation allows collected whole blood to be separated into red blood cells and plasma. The Alvedia Double Blood Bag provides a connected second bag to support component preparation following feline donor blood collection.
Direct antiglobulin testing
The Direct Antiglobulin Test (DAT), also known as the direct Coombs test, is used to detect antibodies and/or complement associated with the surface of red blood cells. Alvedia canine and feline DAT products are available in Easy QuickTest and LabTest formats.
