Basic imunology principle; if you wanna detect specific antibody, you should have a specific antigen to detect it. The other blood group system considered as minor blood group and of course the major one is ABO and Rh system. Antibodies from other blood group such as MNSs, P, Mia, Kidd, Kell, Duffy, Lewis, Diego etc. might cause hemolytic transfusion reaction as well in case of it's catagories in IgG class. From basic imunology princeple, known cell, Standard cell O can be used for detecting antibodies from other blood group systems. The main reason of using O cell for detect other blood group is.. there're no A-Ag and B-Ag on red cell. The process of anti human globulin test (Indirect coombs test) could be perform between serum sample and standard o cell to detect antibodies form other blood group systems.

Can blood group O and blood group ab cause rhesus factor?

No, blood group O and blood group AB are ABO blood groups, while the rhesus factor is determined by the presence or absence of the Rh antigen on the surface of red blood cells. The ABO and Rh systems are independent of each other, so having blood group O or AB does not determine the presence or absence of the rhesus factor.


Why you can give patients with group A blood with group O?

Group A blood types have A antibodies attached to their blood cells. Group B blood types have B antibodies attached to their blood cells. If you give a group A blood type a transfusion with type B blood, their body will attack the type B blood cells after sensing foreign antibodies. Since Group O does not have any antibodies attached to the blood cells, you can give it to type A. Type A will not detect foreign antibodies since group O has no antibodies, and therefore, the body will accept the type O blood. All Medical Answers need confirmation and re-confirmation.

What is the difference between ABO blood group and MN blood group?

MN blood group codes for antigens M and N on red blood cells . and ABO blood group does the same by coding A B AND i antigen on red blood cells. but as MN blood group do not illustrate strong immunity so they are ignored in regular blood transfusions . while ABO blood groups are taken in consideration as the give strong immunological reactions


What blood type should each kind should donate to and receive from?

Blood group A can donate and receive blood from blood group A. Blood group B can donate and receive blood from blood group B. Blood group AB can donate only to blood group AB and receive from any other blood group (they are universal recipent) Blood group O can donate to any other blood group ( they are universal donor) and can receive from only blood group O.


What is RHfactor?
