You would like to determine the blood type of your patient via an agglutination test. You add three drops of the patient’s blood sample to three different wells on a plate and then add either anti-A, anti-B, or anti-Rh sera to each drop. You observe agglutination reactions in the samples to which you added the anti-A and anti-B sera. What is the blood type of your patient?ANSWERO-B+AB-A-

Solution

The blood type of the patient is AB. The agglutination reactions in the samples with anti-A and anti-B sera indicate the presence of both A and B antigens in the patient's blood. The absence of a reaction in the sample with anti-Rh serum indicates that the Rh factor is not present. Therefore, the patient's blood type is AB-.

REQUIRED119.In humans, there are four blood types: A, B, AB and O. The blood type is dependent on the type of antigen present on red blood cells (A, B, or both). Individuals that lack the antigens are type O. This is the recessive trait. A and B are both equally dominant and both antigens can be expressed, which results in AB blood type. This is an example of
