for example: l know that ''O'' is ''i i''
(when using Punnett squares people!! thanks:])
what are the antigens and antibodies that go with the 4 main blood types
You can go on & find out more antigens on the red cells by phenotyping for the common rhesus antigens, D, C, E, d, c, e. (The D is rhesus positive & in O+, & the d is rhesus neg as in A-) It is also common to type for the Kell antigen. Some people have antibodies against further blood system antigens, usually after being transfused antigen positive blood, their immune system sees it as foreign & forms an antibody against it, usually this is no problem unless the patient is undergoing blood transfusion, then antigen negative blood much be fully crossmatched for the patient. these r known as alloantibodies - antibodies against antigens they lack.
what are the antigens and antibodies that go with the 4 main blood types
Blood type A has - A antigen B antibody
Blood type B has - B antigen A antibody
Blood type AB has - both A and B antigen no antibodies
Blood type O has - no antigens both A and B antibodies.
