Under what conditions might a person with Rh-blood develop Rh antibodies?
Wiki User
∙ 9y ago
The first time an Rh- patient receives blood from an Rh+ donor, the Rh- patient will develop Rh agglutinins (agglutinins=antibodies) in the blood plasma. If the patient receives another Rh+ donation, it will cause agglutination, or clumping of the blood. The red blood cell membranes become leaky and hemoglobin pours into the blood. A possible cause is kidney failure due to excess hemoglobin at filtration sites.

Do you develop passive immunity when you receive antibodies from another person?
Yes, passive immunity is developed when you receive antibodies from another person.
If a person given an injection containing only antibodies would most likely develop in?
passive immunity
What antibodies do a person with A- have?
A person with A negative blood will form antibodies to Rh + and to B
When a person receives a flu vaccination does he develop active or passive immunity?
Active. Foreign microbes, or parts of microbes, are introduced to the body and the immune system reacts and produces antibodies. The antibodies were made in reaction to a foreign body introduced into the body, so it's active. Passive is when the antibodies are given directly to the person, such as from mother to child in pregnancy.
Can a diabetic person have osteoarthritis?
Yes. Any person can develop osteoarthritis, regardless of any other previous conditions.
Can antibodies be transferred from person to person?
yes
In infected person's HIV antibodies are found in the?
Antibodies are found in the blood from the HIV.
How much time it takes to produce detectable antibodies in the blood during primary immune response?
In general, it takes approximately one week(or less than a week) for an adult to develop antibodies during primary immune response.
What does seropositive mean and how is a person tested for HIV?
When a person contracts HIV, their body releases certain antibodies to fight that infection. As such, if those antibodies are found in a person, then that individual has HIV. These antibodies can be detected through a simple examination of oral fluids or a blood sample. If you are found to have these antibodies, then you are seropositive.
What do antibodies to the aids virus indicate?
Antibodies to the AIDS virus indicates the person is HIV positive.
It is known that if a person develops cow pox and recovers and then is exposed to smallpox and he or she is less likely to develop smallpox why?
This is because the two types of pox are related. Someone exposed to cowpox will develop antibodies to the cowpox. These antibodies will help fight against small pox. This phenomenon was observed by Edward Jenner, who used it to create a smallpox vaccine. (The word "vaccine" is related to the Latin word for "cow".)
You had an HIV test 7 weeks after intercourse and came back negative is this test reliable?
Yes the test is reliable but, most HIV tests are antibody tests that measure the antibodies your body makes against HIV. It can take some time for the immune system to produce enough antibodies for the antibody test to detect, and this time period can vary from person to person. This time period is commonly referred to as the "window period." Most people will develop detectable antibodies within 2 to 8 weeks (the average is 25 days). Even so, there is a chance that some individuals will take longer to develop detectable antibodies. Therefore, if the initial negative HIV test was conducted within the first 3 months after possible exposure, repeat testing should be considered >3 months after the exposure occurred to account for the possibility of a false-negative result. Ninety-seven percent of persons will develop antibodies in the first 3 months following the time of their infection. In very rare cases, it can take up to 6 months to develop antibodies to HIV.
