A and B antibodies

Detailed explanation-1: -blood group A – has A antigens on the red blood cells with anti-B antibodies in the plasma. blood group B – has B antigens with anti-A antibodies in the plasma. blood group O – has no antigens, but both anti-A and anti-B antibodies in the plasma.
Detailed explanation-2: -Can you determine the blood type? Agglutination in the test tubes contaning A antibodies and B antibodies. Accordingly, the blood type is AB Rh-.
Detailed explanation-3: -If your blood cells don’t clump when mixed with either anti-A or anti-B antibodies, you have type O blood.
Detailed explanation-4: -If you have both A and B markers on the surface of your cells (type AB blood), your body does not need to fight the presence of either. This means that someone with AB blood can get a transfusion from someone with A, B, AB, or O blood.
Detailed explanation-5: -ABO blood grouping is based on differences in the type of glycoprotein (protein with carbohydrates attached) present on the surface of red blood cells. Type A individuals have type A glycoproteins; Type B individuals have type B glycoproteins; Type AB individuals have both; and Type O individuals have neither.
