Reactivity of 3 monoclonal antibodies on nontreated and acid-treated HLA-I LSAB. Nontreated and acid-treated LSAB were incubated with W6/32, anti-β2m (both from Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL) and HC-10 (kindly provided by One Lambda) at 10 μg/mL, then were washed and incubated with 200-fold diluted PE-labeled Goat F(ab’)2 fragment anti-mouse IgG (H + L) (Beckman Coulter, Marseille, France). After acid treatment, all beads reached MFI < 1000 with W6/32 and 3 beads still had MFI ≥ 1000 with anti-β2m.
