Detailed explanation-1: -The immune system forms antibodies against whichever ABO blood group antigens are not found on the individual’s RBCs. Thus, a group A individual will have anti-B antibodies and a group B individual will have anti-A antibodies.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Anti-A, Anti-B, and Anti-A, B reagents are used in the red blood cell determination of the ABO blood group. They are used to determine the absence or presence of erythrocytic antigens A and/or B on the surface of human red blood cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your ABO blood type is based on the presence or absence of the A and B antigens on your red blood cells. The A blood type has only the A antigen and the B blood type has only the B antigen. The AB blood type has both A and B antigens, and the O blood type has neither A nor B antigen.
Detailed explanation-4: -Group AB individuals have neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies in their plasma.
