About Blood Type Test | Learn Your Blood Type in Santa Fe
Blood type is inherited and remains constant throughout life. It matters for transfusions, pregnancy, and some medical procedures.
The ABO system sorts blood into four groups: A, B, AB, and O. This classification depends on whether A and B antigens are found on the red blood cells. Type A has the A antigen, type B has the B antigen, type AB has both, and type O has neither.
The Rh system adds a positive or negative designation. If the Rh D antigen is present, the type is positive; if it is absent, the type is negative. Combining the two systems yields eight common blood types, from A positive to O negative.
Blood typing is performed on a small blood sample. The sample is mixed with reagents that react with specific antigens, and the resulting clumping pattern reveals the blood group. Results are typically available within a few business days.
