He was editor of the journal " Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology " for 15 years and developed the Rosette test as well.
3.
A rosette test will be positive if fetal D-positive cells are present in the maternal sample, indicating a significantly large fetomaternal hemorrhage has occurred.
4.
A positive rosette test should be followed by a quantitative test such as the Kleihauer-Betke test ( acid / elution ) or an alternative approach such as flow cytometry.
5.
A rosette test may be falsely positive if the mother is positive for the weak D phenotype and falsely negative if the neonate is weak D . If the rosette test is negative, then a dose of 300 micrograms of RhIG is given ( sufficient to prevent alloimmunization after delivery in 99 % of cases ).
