What is clumping of red blood cells when they are mixed with antiserum?
Clumping of red blood cells when mixed with antiserum is known as agglutination. This reaction occurs when the red blood cells contain antigens that agglutinate with antibodies present in the antiserum. Agglutination is commonly used in blood typing to determine an individual's blood type.
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.
Why blood group o should not receive blood from other groups?
Blood group O has both a and b antibodies, therefore receiving blood from blood group A, the A-antigens will agglutinate with the b-antibodies of the person with blood group O. Receiving blood from blood group B will also cause agglutination of its b-antigens and the blood group O's a-antibodies.
The genotype of the person with normal red blood cells is?
The genotype of a person with normal red blood cells is usually AA, where both copies of the beta-globin gene are normal. This results in the production of normal hemoglobin and red blood cells.
Why does blood agglutinate?
Leukoagglutination is extremely rare in health individuals and is far more common in those suffering from infections, sepsis, lymphoproliferative disorders, alcoholic liver disease, hemophilia, and autoimmune diseases.
What is clumping of red blood cells when they are mixed with antiserum?
Clumping of red blood cells when mixed with antiserum is known as agglutination. This reaction occurs when the red blood cells contain antigens that agglutinate with antibodies present in the antiserum. Agglutination is commonly used in blood typing to determine an individual's blood type.
What is a serum that will agglutinate in the presence of type B blood?
Anti-B serum will agglutinate in the presence of type B blood. This serum contains antibodies that specifically target the B antigen on the surface of red blood cells. When mixed with type B blood, agglutination will occur, resulting in the clumping of red blood cells.
Does a person with type B blood agglutinate with a person with type A in the RBC's?
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 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.
What class of antibody forms a large complex that can agglutinate cells?
IgM
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.
If you have 4000 red blood cells how many white blood cells will you have?
It varies from person-to-person - and whether the person needs more or less white cells due to injury or illness.
What will happen to a person when the red blood cells cant deliver oxygen to cells?
the person will die
Why blood group o should not receive blood from other groups?
Blood group O has both a and b antibodies, therefore receiving blood from blood group A, the A-antigens will agglutinate with the b-antibodies of the person with blood group O. Receiving blood from blood group B will also cause agglutination of its b-antigens and the blood group O's a-antibodies.
When a person has fewer red blood cells than normal how will his or her color?
when a person has fewer red blood cells than normal his or her color is yellowish
Is agglutination always bad?
Yes, clinically speaking this is the reason you can not put any blood into anyone. when blood cells agglutinate, many blood vessels are blocked, and the recipient of the blood goes into shock and may die.
