Is it true if you are rh- blood type you can only have one baby?
No, that's not true. If you are a Rh- mother then your immune system will become sensitized by an Rh + baby and if you were to have a second Rh+ baby without taking medication to control this then that baby would have a condition called fetal erythroblastosis.
Can a child born with rh negative blood type be the offspring of an o positive father?
It depends on the genotype of the Rh+ parent. If that person is heterozygous, then yes there is a 50% chance of an Rh- baby.Father's Group (negative)Mother's Group (positive heterozygous)Rh +Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh -, Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh - Rh -http://www.bloodbook.com/inherited.htmlIf the positive parent is homozygous, the baby will be positive:Father's Group (negative)Mother's Group (positive homozygous)Rh +Rh +Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh -Rh +, Rh -Rh + Rh -
Is the phenotype which determine RH?
Genotype determines the rh phenotype. The two alleles for rh factor are rh+ (rh positive) and rh- (rh negative). The rh+ allele is dominant.
What kind of feedback loops are sensitization and desensitization?
Negative
You have type O plus why does your father have O negative?
there is no problem with that, your Rh+ comes from your mother :) ur father genotype is Rh-Rh- your mother should be Rh+Rh+ or Rh+Rh- so you took one Rh- from your father and one Rh+ from your mother the result will be Rh+Rh- and because the +ve propriety is more dominant your blood type will be +ve even if you have the mix of Rh+Rh-
What is the serum used to prevent sensitization to rh antigens?
RhoGAM
What is the code for Rh imcompatibility?
There is no code for maternal Rh negative status; only an ICD9 code for previous sensitization.
The immune serum used to prevent maternal sensitization to Rh antigens is?
RhoGAM
Can Rh antibodies of Rh- be detected?
A person who is Rh negative may have antibodies if he or she has been exposed in the past to Rh positive blood. Rhogam will prevent this sensitization in a pregnant woman with negative blood carrying an Rh positive baby.
What Rh factor combinations could cause agglutination of an infant's red blood cells?
A baby's Rh type is inherited from the parents. A pregnant woman is at risk of problems with Rh sensitization if she is Rh-negative and the father of her baby is Rh-positive. http://pregnancy.lovetoknow.com/wiki/Rh_Factor

Can A negative blood type receive positive blood type?
An Rh negative recipient may receive Rh positive cellular blood products IF the recipient does not have preexisting Anti-D antibodies present in their plasma, is not a female of child bearing age/capable of becoming pregnant and/or there is an emergent need for blood components (trauma, etc.) and Rh negative products are not available. If Rh positive products are administered to an Rh negative recipient, Rh positive components may continue to be administered until anti-D antibodies are detected on pre-transfusion screening tests. If Rh positive platelets are administered to an Rh negative recipient, Rh Immune Globulin (e.g., RHoGam) may be administered to prevent sensitization in the recipient.
Questionnaire for primary school teacher in gender sensitization?

What is the root word of sensitization?

What are examples of sensitization?
there is no sensitivity in this world
What happens when a vanishing twin with positive blood type is absorbed by a mother with negative blood?
A pregnancy that ends so early so as to be described as "vanishing twin syndrome" does not present a risk of Rh sensitization. This is why in many parts of the developed world, Anti-Rho(d) type products aren't given for early pregnancy losses or early terminations in Rh negative women.
Can O positive group of boys marry A positive group of girls?
Blood type has nothing to do with marriage. Any combination of blood types for the mother and the father can safely conceive a child.
