The name rhesus factor (Rh) goes back to the use of erythrocytes extracted from the blood of rhesus monkeys for obtaining the first blood serum. The Rh blood group system is a human blood group system. It contains proteins on the surface of red blood cells. After the ABO blood group system, it is most likely to be involved in transfusion reactions.

Anti-Rhesus IgG1 [3C10.3] This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to rhesus IgG1. It specifically reacts with rhesus IgG1 via ELISA. Specificity of anti-rhesus IgG1 to rhesus IgG1 was confirmed through antibody responses to HIV-1 vaccine in rhesus macaques. [29] Anti-Rhesus IgG4 [2C6] This is a recombinant monoclonal antibody to rhesus IgG4.
