27
Q

bombay phenotype is the inheritance of hh gene therefore no __

A

H susbstance

RBCs does not react with anti-H lectin

28
Q

bombay is first reported by __ in 1952

A

Dr. Bhende

29
Q

what does it mean by bombay?

can inherit A or B genes but has no H substance, therefore no ABH antigens

anti-A, anti-B, anti-AB

33
Q

an igM that reacts at 37C

A

anti-H

34
Q

35
Q

what phenotype? anti-H produced is weaker but still reactive at 37C

A

para-bombay

36
