Q

what are the Landsteiner’s rules

A
  1. YOU MUST BE NEGATIVE FOR THE ANTIGEN IN ORDER TO BUILD THE ANTIBODY
  2. YOU DON’T BUILD ANTIBODIES TO YOUR OWN ANTIGENS (this is generally true, except in autoimmune disease)

22
Q

what confirms the ABO grouping

A

antibodies in the patients plasma (Reverse grouping, also called Backtype)

23
Q

ANTI-A (4+), ANTI-B (0), ANTI-A,B (4+), A1 CELLS (0), B CELLS (4+)

A

Group A

24
Q

ANTI-A (0), ANTI-B (4+), ANTI-A,B (4+), A1 CELLS (4+), B CELLS (0)

A

Group B

25
Q

ANTI-A (0), ANTI-B (0), ANTI-A,B (0), A1 CELLS (4+), B CELLS (4+)

A

Group O

26
Q

ANTI-A (4+), ANTI-B (4+), ANTI-A,B (4+), A1 CELLS (0), B CELLS (0)

A

Group AB

27
Q

what can you transfuse group O red cells to

A

all ABO groups

28
Q

what can you transfuse to a O person

A

only O

29
Q

what can you transfuse to a AB person

A

any abo group

30
Q

what can you transfuse to a A person

A

O and A

31
Q

what can you transfuse to a B person

A

O and B

32
Q

You need to inherit what type of gene to build antigens on your red cells

A

H gene

33
Q

What do all group O people do with the H antigen

A

they retain all there H antigen because they do not inherit an A or B gene to convert it to.

34
Q

What does a failure to inherit an H gene result in?

A

Bombay phenotype (hh)

35
Q

what are the 4 phenotypes for transfusion

A

A, B, O, AB

36
Q

when is the only time it matters that there are six phenotypes and 10 genotypes

A

ANTI-A1 ANTIBODY PRODUCED BY A2 OR A2B INDIVIDUALS

37
Q

ANTI-A (4+), ANTI-B (0), ANTI-A,B (4+), A1 CELLS (2+), B CELLS (4+)

A

A2

38
Q

ABO genes are Codominant, what does that mean

A

YOU ONLY NEED THE GENE FROM ONE PARENT IN ORDER TO BUILD THE ANTIBODY

39
Q

when are subgroups of A important

A

when testing donor blood

40
Q

what antibody detects most subgroups of A

A

anti a,b antibody

41
Q

What is the most common of the subgroups of A

A

A3

42
Q

how is A3 recognized

A

by observing mixed field agglutination

43
Q

what extract reacts with antigen H

A

ulex europaeus

44
Q

what extract reacts with antigen a1

A

dolichos biflorus

45
Q

what percentage of group A are A1 and A2

A

A1- 80%

A2- 20%

46
Q

what is the universal recipient of red cells

A

AB

47
Q

what is the universal donor of plasma cells

A

AB

48
Q

what percentage of people secrete A and B antigens and H antigens into their body fluids

A

80%

49
Q

IF YOU INHERIT AN “H” GENE AND A SECRETOR (Se) GENE, BUT NO LEWIS (Le) GENE

A

Le(a-b-)

50
Q

IF YOU INHERIT AN “H” GENE, A “Le” GENE, BUT NO SECRETOR GENE (sese) THEN YOU MAKE LEWIS A ANTIGEN ON YOUR RED CELLS BUT YOU CANNOT CONVERT IT TO LEWIS B ANTIGEN.

A

Le(a+b-)

51
Q

IF YOU INHERIT AN “H” GENE, A “Le” GENE, AND A “Se” GENE THEN YOU MAKE LEWIS A ANTIGEN ON YOUR RED BLOOD CELLS BUT BECAUSE YOU HAVE ALL THREE GENES THE LEWIS A ANTIGEN IS CONVERTED TO LEWIS B ANTIGEN

A

Le(a-b+)

52
Q

what do you do to get a elderly patients antibodies to show

A

IF YOU INCUBATE THE TESTS AT ROOM TEMPERATURE FOR 15 MINUTES OR, BETTER YET, AT REFRIGERATOR TEMPS FOR 5 MINUTES, THEN THE AGGLUTINATION WILL USUALLY BE THERE (WEAKLY)

53
Q

what is an example of a use for DAT

A

–EXAMPLE: A NEWBORN WITH ANTIBODY FROM THE MOTHER ATTACHED TO HIS/HER CELLS
