A Coomb's test will indicate the formation of antibodies on the red blood cell. This test can be used to determine blood type, and diagnose certain hemolytic anemias. A Coombs' test may also indicate the prescense of maternal antibodies against the fetal blood type as occurs in erythroblastosis fetalis.
