Cat. #140 Blood Typing

For 10 Groups. In human blood, there are two major antigens and antibodies designated as A or B and anti-A or anti-B. Blood type (A, B, AB, or O) can be determined using an agglutination assay where roughly equal concentrations of sample antigen and previously isolated antibodies are mixed and then monitored for precipita- tion. This test is often used to ensure safe blood transfusions. However, it can also be used in the field of forensics. Aggluti - nation assays can confirm that collected evidence is human blood before more time intensive tests are performed. In addition, blood typing can screen potential suspects by blood group.
