Antigens and blood compatibility tests<br /><br />There are many types of antigens (twenty for red blood cells alone).<br />Antigens that belong to the same category form what we call a blood group.<br />Several classifications of blood groups are known, but not all have the same importance for transfusion.<br />The compatibility analysis for the same group is carried out taking into account only two categories of antigens, the so-called ABO and Rhesus systems.<br /><br />#antigens #bloodtransfusion #bloodcomposition #redbloodcells<br />#Antigensbloodcompatibility #Antigensonredbloodcells #Bloodantigensandantibodies #antigen #bloodtype #bloodtypecompatibility #bloodtypes
