blood type
determined by carbohydrate markers present on the plasma membrane of your erythrocytes
antigens
markers that make blood identifiable to immune system; normally located on the extracellular surface of plasma membrane of a cell
antigen A
indicates blood type A
antigen B
indicates blood type B
Group A
Blood Cell Type: A
Antibodies: Anti-B
Antigens: A
Group B
Blood Cell Type: B
Antibodies: Anti-A
Antigens: B
Group AB
Blood Cell Type: AB
Antibodies: None
Antigens: A and B
Group O
Blood Cell Type: O
Antibodies: Anti-A and B
Antigens: None
blood type O
most common blood type
Rh Factor
determines positive or negative blood type based on presence of rhesus factor
Rh +
Rh Factor Present? Yes
Rh Antibodies Present? No
Rh -
Rh Factor Present? No
Rh Antibodies Present? Yes
agglutination
immune response know as clumping resulting from foreign particles
compatibility
based upon the antigens present in the donated cells and the antibodies present in the recipient cells
A blood type can donate to
A or AB (they lack A antibodies)
B blood type can donate to
B or AB (they lack B antibodies)
AB blood type can donate to
AB only (they have no antibodies)
O blood type can donate to
All blood types (they have no antigens
universal donor
O blood type
A blood type can get
A or O (they lack anti-a antibodies but have anti-b antibodies)
B blood type can get
B or O (they lack anti-b antibodies but have anti-a antibodies)
AB blood type can get
All blood types (they have no antibodies)
universal recipient
AB blood type
O blood type can get
O blood type (they have anti-a and anti-b antibodies)
hemolytic disease of the newborn
occurs due to Rh incompatibility between a mother and baby if mother is - and baby is +; women only make anti-Rh after first pregnancy
repeat pregnancies
most at risk for fetal death or miscarriage due to mixing of mother-baby blood.
blood type testing
uses antigen/antibody recognition to determine an individual's blood type
A+ blood type test
Anti-A: Agglutination
Anti-B: None
Anti-D: Agglutination
A- blood typing test
Anti-A: Agglutination
Anti-B: None
Anti-D: None
B+ blood typing test
Anti-A: None
Anti-B: Agglutination
Anti-D: Agglutination
B- blood typing test
Anti-A: None
Anti-B: Agglutination
Anti-D: None
AB+ blood typing test
Anti-A: Agglutination
Anti-B: Agglutination
Anti-D: Agglutination
AB- blood typing test
Anti-A: Agglutination
Anti-B: Agglutination
Anti-D: None
O+ blood typing test
Anti-A: None
Anti-B: None
Anti-D: Agglutination
O- blood typing test
Anti-A: None
Anti-B: Agglutination
Anti-D: None
