What is the Rh blood type?
People with different blood types have proteins specific to that blood type on the surfaces of their red blood cells (RBCs). Rh factor "Rhesus factor" is type of antigens on the human blood cell. The presence of this antigen in human blood given (+) besides it's blood type. The absence of this antigen is given (-) besides blood type. For example A- or A+.
What problems does rh blood pose for pregnancy and childbirth?
When having RH blood type, it can complicate pregnancy, but it is rare. It is normally when the fetus's blood travels through your canal. RH blood types are compatible with other RH blood types.
Are B and Rh one blood type or two different blood types?
The blood groups A, B, AB and O are the seperate blood types and within a blood type the blood may be Rh+ or Rh-.
Is blood type rh o negative rare?
RH negative is not very rare, and it is a blood grouping system not a type. Whether your blood is Rh or not depends on the D-antigen in your blood. Rh is the second most important blood grouping system after ABO.
Is Rh negative the same as a negative?
Rhesus negative is one of the major two variants in blood typing (the other obviously being Rh positive). For example, people refer to themselves as "A+", "O-" or "AB-". There is nothing wrong with having it.
What does Rh stands for?
Rh is an antigen. If you have the antigen, your blood type is A+, B+, AB+, or O+. If you don't have the antigen, your blood type is A-, B-, AB-, or O-. People WITH the Rh antigen, can receive from/give to people with Rh+ or Rh-. People WITHOUT the Rh antigen, can ONLY receive from/give to people with Rh- blood. (meaning people without the antigen) If Rh- and Rh+ blood comes in contact, the Rh- will produce antibodies towards Rh+, and at the second contact with the blood, will cause agglutination.

What are rh negative blood groups?
it is a part of blood group. 95% people are Rh +ve, only 5% people are Rh negative.
What do Rh and blood types have to do with each other?
Rh is a blood group system used for blood transfusions. Many people have the Rh factor on the red blood cell's surface that determine who they can give and receive blood from.

Is there blood banks in my area with rh blood?
Rh blood is the most complex genetically of all blood types. It is known that a mother who is pregnant and has Rh- and the father has Rh+, it can cause birth defects in the child. If you are recieving a blood transfusion though this does not apply. You can either recieve Rh- or Rh+. All blood types negative or positive all have Rh blood types in them. The problem you may be experiencing which may take you awhile to recieve blood is that you may have Rh- negative blood which means that you cannot recieve Rh-negative or Rh+negative, and you can only recieve Rh- negative, but yes all blood banks will carry Rh blood, this type of blood though may be more common in different types of people though.
What Ethnic group has Rh negative blood type?
There isn't a specific ethnicity that has Rh negative blood type, as all types of people can have it. Rh negative mothers may develop antibodies to Rh positive babies, which may cause health problems.
Why cant a woman that is rh negative donate blood?
This not entirely true while an Rh- person can not receive Rh+ blood due to the fact as stated above an Rh+ person can receive Rh- blood because there is no Rh in the blood. This is why O- people are universal donors meaning they are able to give blood to anyone, but can only receive 0- blood.
How many people in the world have RH negative blood?
15% of people in the world are rh negative...i happen to be one of that 15%
Is human blood is in negative charge?
No. Its the Rh factor. Some people are born with the Rh protein in their blood and a very few aren't. The people that have the protein are Rh+ and those that don't are Rh-. Women who have Rh- blood such as O- have to get a Rhogam shot so they aren't exposed to the protein when they have Rh+ children. If they are exposed, they build antibodies that can attack Rh+ babies they are carrying.
How is the Rh factor of blood cells important?
About 85 percent of the people he tested had this protein, and about 15 percent lacked it. Like the A, B, AB, and O blood types, the presence of Rh factor is determined by a marker on the red blood cell. If your blood type is Rh positive, you have the Rh marker. If your blood type is Rh negative, you lack the marker on your cells. If you are Rh negative and ever received Rh positive blood, you would develop Rh clumping proteins in your plasma. This situation is potentially dangerous.
Why is the Rh factor especially important with a transfusion?
In all the four basic blood groups there exist two sub-groups called Rh (+ve) and Rh (-ve). The people with the Rh (+ve) blood group have an additional "Rh" facto or the "Rhesus" factor (so named because it was first observed and discovered in the Rhesus monkeys). Whereas the people who do not have the 'Rh' factor are said to have Rh (-ve) blood as in B (-ve) etc. While blood transfusion it is very important to check the "Rh-compatibility" of blood of the donor and that of the recipient, because transfusion of Rh +ve blood to a person with anegative blood group leads to agglutination(clumping) of blood cells thus resulting in death of the person. But it must be noted that transfusion of Rh -ve blood to a person with positive blood group does not harm the recipient.
