Se describe un estudio realizado con los hemoclasificadores monoclonales cubanos Hemo CIM anti-A y anti-B producidos por el Centro de Inmunología Molecular (CIM) y comercializados por CIMAB S.A, para ser evaluados en pacientes VIH/SIDA. Se analizaron un total de 130 pacientes en el Servicio de Transfusiones del Instituto "Pedro Kourí". Se utilizaron en paralelo los antisueros policlonales de producción nacional (Laboratorios Betera) y los reactivos monoclonales comerciales producidos y donados por International Blood Group Reference Laboratory; Bristol, UK. Se demostró que los reactivos Hemo CIM anti-A y Hemo CIM anti-B se comportaron de forma similar a sus homólogos comerciales y policlonales. Al comparar la efectividad de la aglutinación para los 3 reactivos pudimos comprobar que con el reactivo monoclonal, Hemo CIM anti-A y anti-B se obtuvieron los mejores resultados expresados en crucesA study conducted with the Cuban anti-A and anti-B Hemo CIM monoclonal hemoclassifiers produced by the Center of Molecular Immunology (CMI) and commercialized by CIMAB S.A. to be evaluated in HIV/AIDS patients is described. 130 patients were analyzed at the Service of Transfusions of "Pedro Kouri" Institute. The polyclonal antisera of national production (Betera Laboratories) and the commercial monoclonal reagents produced and donated by the International Blood Group Reference Laboratory; Bristol, UK, were used at the same time. It was proved that the anti-A Hemo CIM and anti-B Hemo CIM reagents behaved similarly to their commercial and polyclonal homologues. On comparing the effectiveness of the agglutination for the 3 reagents, we were able to verify that the best results expressed in crosses were obtained with the anti-A and anti-B Hemo CIM monoclonal reagents
