    Study Notes

    ABO Blood Typing

    • ABO typing is a test used to determine an individual's blood group.
    • The test involves mixing a blood sample with antibodies against type A and B blood.
    • The blood sample is then checked for agglutination (clumping) of blood cells.
    • If agglutination occurs, it indicates that the blood reacted with one of the antibodies, revealing the blood type.
