Immune Hematology laboratory
The Department of Immunohematology was established in 1939 by T.L. Torgomyan. Since 2008, it has been led by Dr. Nelli Musayelyan, PhD.
Located within the “Yeolyan” Hematology and Oncology Center, the department is equipped with cutting-edge technology, enabling a broad range of advanced diagnostic tests. It remains the only department of its kind in Armenia.
The department utilizes state-of-the-art immunohematological diagnostic systems, including the ORTHO VISION Swift and Bio Vue ORTHO WORKSTATION—both automated and semi-automated platforms. These systems allow for high-precision, simultaneous testing across a variety of immunohematological parameters.
With the support of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Armenia, the center has acquired the Luminex FlexMap 3D analyzer, the first of its kind in the country. Based on laser-driven flow cytometry technolog
y, this system provides fast, cost-effective, and multiplexed bioanalysis. It can simultaneously measure up to 500 genes or proteins from a single small-volume sample, paving the way for the introduction of new diagnostic capabilities and reinforcing the department’s unique position in Armenia.
Exclusive Services
The following tests are exclusively available at the Department of Immunohematology at the “Yeolyan” Hematology and Oncology Center:
- Complex determination of blood group and Rh factor
- Compatibility testing for bone marrow and solid organ transplants based on ABO, Rh-Hr, Kell, and HLA systems
- Extended erythrocyte antigen phenotyping (Kk, MNSs, P, Duffy, Kidd, Lewis, Lutheran)
Detection of erythrocyte chimerism during transfusions and transplantations- Identification of anti-erythrocyte alloantibodies (against 11 antigens)
- Investigation of post-transfusion reactions based on ABO, Rh-Hr, Kell, and HLA systems
- Compatibility assessment for couples based on ABO, Rh-Hr, Kell, and HLA systems
- Diagnosis of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) using ABO, Rh-Hr, and Kell systems, with selection of appropriate blood components for exchange transfusion
- Detection of immune ABO antibodies in breast milk
- Titration of autoimmune cold and warm antibodies
In addition to diagnostics, the department is actively engaged in scientific research, clinical practice, and production activities.
