Best Answer

Yes. If you transfuse type B blood into a type A person there will be agglutination because the type A person naturally makes anti-B antibodies. The converse is also true. If you transfuse type A blood into a type B person there will be agglutination because the type B person naturally makes anti-A antibodies.

What is a serum that will agglutinate in the presence of type B blood?

typa A blood


Does type AB blood contains agglutinate A and B?

If the blood type is AB then the agglutinin would be O because agglutinin is what we do not have. Since the person has AB type blood, he/she does not have O type blood.


Why is it important to get the right blood type during a transfusion?

Actually blood group of a person is determined by the antigens(A special protein) present on the surface of all the red blood corpuscels(RBCs) in the body.The body's antibodies do not effect the RBCs of the same type but RBCs with any other type of antigen are attacked by the antibodies and immediately sticking of RBCs begins(called agglutination) causing a great risk to the life of the patient.Threfore, care is taken to match the blood groups of donor and recipient during blood transfusion.


What is likely to occur if a person with type A blood receives a transfusion of type B blood?

If this happens, antibodies that the patient already has in his or her blood will attack the donor red blood cells and destroy them. This could cause fever, chills, chest or back pain.


Will the B antibody in the plasma donor blood group A agglutinate the A antigen of the AB recipient and Why?

Yes. A person with blood group antibody B can not donate blood to another person with group A because it will agglutinates as they blood group A can only be donated to to a person with blood group A. Even though you donate whole blood, all of it is not given unless you both have the exact blood type. A person with A type (who has B antibodies in their plasma) will only donate their cells. No antibodies will be given. So AB can be given A but without the plasma which has the antibodies.


Can a person with A blood type receive blood from O blood type?

Yes, O is suitable for all types of blood groups because it's a a general donnor. Definiely YES , blood type A can receive blood type 'O' because blood type 'O' has no A and B antigen and it will not cause any agglutination ( no clumping of red blood cells) . Whereas if a patient of a blood type 'O' receive a donor of blood type A..it will cause a major hemolytic transfusion reaction which is fatal to the patient with 'O' blood type because an A antigen will agglutinate(clumps) red cells of the "O' blood type patient.


Can you transfuse blood from a type A donar into a type B recipient?

No, you can't give someone type A blood if they are type B. You can only give type B or O to someone with type B.The body will reject and then actively attack the blood cells, making the person more sick then when they started transfusing blood.Here's how it goes:Type A = A antigen + anti-B antibody (I hate B)Type B = B antigen + anti-A antibody (I hate A)If A is transfused into B, the antibodies will agglutinate the B causing "clumps"If B is transfused into B, those antibodies will agglutinate the AType O blood can be GIVEN to A or B because there are not anti-O antibodies


Type A blood can receive blood from what blood types?

Short Answer: Type A blood can receive a transfusion from Types A or O.Why?The blood cell has a protein identifier (antigen) on its outer cell membrane.If the person is Type A, B or O, they also have an antibody in their plasma (blood fluid) that protects the person against either Type A or B transfusions.Type A plasma carries the antibody "I hate B" that would agglutinate a Type B or AB transfusion.Type A has no antibodies to Type O cells & therefore O would be a candidate.Type A has no antibodies against itself and therefore A would be a candidate.Please keep in mind that there are 32 different blood-group systems on the human blood cell, and ABO is only one of them. Even if two people have been told that they have the same blood type (ABO and Rh factor), their blood may not be compatible for transfusion.


What blood type can A positive receive?

A person with type A blood can donate blood to a person with type A or type AB. A person with type B blood can donate blood to a person with type B or type AB. A person with type AB blood can donate blood to a person with type AB only. A person with type O blood can donate to anyone. A person with type A blood can receive blood from a person with type A or type O. A person with type B blood can receive blood from a person with type B or type O. A person with type AB blood can receive blood from anyone. A person with type O blood can receive blood from a person with type O. hope this helps, #JC# http://www.fi.edu/learn/heart/blood/types.html
