ABO genes
what terminology if you inherit both A and B genes, threfore you will have AB antigens

LANDSTEINERS LAW
- The antigen on the RBC determines the blood group
- The corresponding antibody is never found in the individuals serum
- the opposite antibody is always present in the individuals serum
what antibody is naturaly occuring
ABO Antibodies
PREDOMINANTLY IgM
ABO antibodies
what is the exception in the ABO antibodies which is IgG in nature
anti-AB
why should we not perform reverse groupin on babies
production of ABO is not yet high
Detectable titers in ABO atibodies
3 to 6 months
