ANTIGEN – substances that induces an immune response by causing production of antibodies
ANTIBODY - serum protein that is induced by, and reacts specifically with a foreign substance (Ag)

ABO Blood Group System• Discovered by Karl Landsteiner; on chromosome 9
• Single most important blood group for the selection and transfusion of blood
• Three antigens: A, B, H
• Two major antibodies: anti-A and anti-B
• Four phenotypes: A, B, AB, O

ABO AntigensPresent on the surface of red cells as well as
tissue and endothelial cells in the body
Found in soluble form in the plasma and other body secretions in people known as secretors
3 possible genes tat an be inherited: A, B, and O

ABO AntibodiesNatural antibodies antigenic stimulus is
environment exposure occur at birth
Newborns without ABO antibodies of their own; begin to produce wit detectable titers at 6 months age

According to the ABO blood typing system there are four different kinds of blood types: A, B, AB or O (null).

Blood group AIf you belong to the blood group A, you have A antigens on the surface of your RBCs and B antibodies in your blood plasma.
Blood group BIf you belong to the blood group B, you have B antigens on the surface of your RBCs and A antibodies in your blood plasma.

Slide Blood TypingThe slide is divided into halves.On one side a drop of anti-A is added, this will
attach to and cause clumping of rbcs possessing the A antigen.
On the other side a drop of anti-B is added which will cause clumping of rbcs with the B antigen.
A drop of rbcs is added to each side and mixed well with the reagent.
The slide is tilted back and forth for one minute and observed for agglutination (clumping) of the rbcs
![Page 16: ABO and Rh Typing](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081413/54740a7fb4af9f231b8b4571/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Interpretation of Slide TypingTesting with Anti-A Anti-Serum
If an rbc contains the A antigen the red blood cells will be agglutinated by anti-A, a positive reaction.
If an rbc does not have the A antigen there will be no clumping, a negative reaction.

Interpretation of Slide TypingTesting with Anti-B Anti-SerumIf an rbc contains the B
antigen the red blood cells will be agglutinated by anti-B, a positive reaction.
If an rbc does not have the B antigen there will be no clumping by anti-B, a negative reaction.

anti-sera.The left hand of the slide contains anti-A which
reacts with the unknown cell.The right hand side contains anti-B which does
not react with the cell.

Rh Blood GroupAnother common way to group blood types is
using Rh antigensRh stands for ‘Rhesus’ because the Rh antigen
was first found in the Rhesus monkeyPeople with the Rh antigen are ‘Rh positive
(Rh+)’, whereas those without the antigen are ‘Rh negative (Rh -)’
Blood plasma does not normally contain anti-Rh antibodies

Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn: Rh Disease
If the fetus has Rh+ blood and the mother has Rh- blood, then the mother will make anti-Rh antibodies
However, contact between fetal and maternal blood is greatest during childbirth, and thus the firstborn baby is usually not affected
• The most common problem with Rh incompatibility is during pregnancy
• A small amount of blood from the fetus may contact the blood of the mother through the placenta

Treatment of HDN• If a woman has Rh- and gives birth to a child,
or if she has a miscarriage or abortion, she is given an injection of anti-Rh antibodies called anti-Rh gamma globulin or RhoGAM to prevent HDN.
• The antibodies bind to the fetal Rh antigens and inactivates them if they crossed the placenta during birth, and the mother’s immune system does not respond by producing antibodies.
