🩸 Have you ever wondered how laboratories determine whether someone is A+, B−, O+, AB+, or another blood type? ABO and Rh blood typing can involve mixing red blood cells with specific reagents containing anti-A, anti-B, and anti-D antibodies. If the corresponding antigen is present on the red blood cells, visible clumping—called agglutination—can occur. 🧪 For example, reactions with anti-A and anti-D but not anti-B are consistent with an A-positive result. Blood typing is especially important for transfusion safety because incompatible blood can cause dangerous reactions.
