9 ABO System RELATIONSHIP OF ABO, H, SE, AND LE 1. Lack of His genetically hh (Bombay ANTIGENS OF ABO SYSTEM phenotype) a. H (HH orHh) is needed for the 1. ABO antigens defined by attachment of A and/or B sugars; H immunodominant sugar on cell surface is converted into A and/or B 2. Genetic pathway b.

Rouleaux - Failure to Wash Cells Repeat with Saline Washed Cells Mixture of Cell Types- Example: A or BTransfused with 0 Check Transfusion History Cells. Subgroups (Example: A2 with or without anti-A 1) Test with Anti-A1 for A Subgroups. Unusual Genotypes (Example: Bombay) Test with Anti-H for Bombay (Bombay Lacks H Antigen and Cells will not Agglutinate with Anti-H; Bombay Serum will Agglutinate A1 & 8 Cells as well as Croup 0 Screening Cells). Disease Processes - Example: Leukemia or Bacteria (Acquired Check Patient Diagnosis; ID Beyond Scope of This Review B Phenomenon) Problems with Serum:. Rouleaux - Due to Increased Serum Proteins (Example: Saline Replacement Waldenstrom's or Multiple Myeloma).

Rouleaux is typically described as having a "stack of coins". ate groupmg- appearance when observed with a oups & IJiscrepancies microscope.

D control is needed for any AB positive and for any ABO type negative at immediate spin for the D antigen; carry testing through to AHG for weak D typing d.
