The Bombay blood group, also known as Oh group, is a rare blood type first identified in Bombay (now Mumbai), India. Individuals with this blood group lack the H antigen, which is a precursor for the A and B antigens found in the more common blood types. As a result, they cannot receive blood from any other blood group except other Bombay blood group individuals. This rarity can pose challenges in blood transfusions and medical treatments for those with the Bombay blood type.

What is the difference between the Bombay blood group and the o negative group?

The Oh negative blood group is the same as the Bombay blood group. The Oh negative group should not be confused with the type O blood group. The Bombay blood group is very rare and results from two recessive H alleles (hh). This means that they cannot produce the "H" antigen, and as a result, they can't produce "A" or "B" antigen on their red blood cells. They can give blood to individuals of any other blood type but can only receive blood from other Bombay blood type individuals.

How will you detect Bombay blood group?

This is an extremely rare ABO group, called so because it was first discovered among some people in Bombay (now Mumbai). Although the group is more likely to occur in East Indians, it is a very rare group even here. It is not restricted to East Indians but found in Caucasians, Japanese, etc. Their red cells lack ABH antigens and their sera contain anti-A and anti-B and anti-H. The anti-H would not be detected in the ABO group but would be detectable in pretransfusion tests.

Can Bombay phenotype blood group peoples donate blood to any ABO members?

Yes. They cannot receive blood from anyone expressing A, B, or O because they produce antibodies to those moities. However, anyone expressing any combination of A, B, and O can receive blood from a Bombay Phenotype (BP). That being said, it is highly unlikely that such a transfusion would occur because BP blood is very rare and thus is saved for any patients that might need it.
