P-P Patient’s plasma, AE Patient’s acid eluent, AB-P AB-type plasma with negative antibody screening test result, PRC Piperacillin, TBT Tazobactam, RBCs Uncoated O-type red blood cells, PRC-RBCs Piperacillin-coated red blood cells, TBT-RBCs Tazobactam-coated red blood cells, 2 days before stopping 2 days before stopping the administration of piperacillin-tazobactam, 3 days after stopping 3 days after stopping the administration of piperacillin-tazobactam

aThe same methods were used to detect drug-dependent antibodies in blood samples collected on day 2 before and on day 3 after the patient’s stopping of the administration of piperacillin-tazobactam, and the direct antiglobulin tests were used to confirm the presence of drug-dependent antibodies

bDue to the presence of piperacillin in the patient’s plasma before stopping the administration of piperacillin-tazobactam, the plasma reacted with both drug-coated red blood cells and uncoated red blood cells; + : strong; -: negative

Remarks: All the 14 combinations of reactive materials were incubated at 37ºC for 1 h and observed by centrifugation (no agglutination and hemolysis were found), and then performed the antiglobulin tests to detect drug-dependent antibodies
