About IBGRL Research Products
A brief history
The International Blood Group Reference Laboratory (IBGRL) was set up in 1946 to centralise production of blood grouping reagents and provide a reference centre for the National Blood Service, now known as NHS Blood and Transplant (NHSBT).
Since 1982, we have developed monoclonal antibodies and antigens, initially as blood grouping reagents and later as research and diagnostic reagents related to red cells, white cells, and platelets.
Many antibodies developed have been characterised at various international workshops.
