Blood Type Test

$ 39.0
$39

There are eight different blood types. This Blood Type Test will help you discover yours.

All blood types carry out the same life-sustaining functions, such as delivering oxygen throughout the body and helping to fight infections.

However, not all blood cells have the same combinations of surface proteins (antigens) and antibodies; it’s those unique combinations that determine your blood type. O+ is the most common blood type, AB- is the rarest.

This blood type test measures the combination of A and B blood type  antigens and specific antibodies that correspond to the four blood groups.  It also detects the Rhesus Factor (Rh) antigen to determine if your blood type is positive or negative. It is important to know your blood type in a medical emergency, if you’re planning for a pregnancy or if you plan on donating blood to help save lives.

What's Tested
Blood Type

Both A and B antigens play a significant role in blood typing, which in combination with specific antibodies create four major blood groups (A, B, AB, and O [has neither the A or B surface protein]).

Rhesus Factor

The third antigen that influences blood type is called Rh, making your blood type either positive when it’s present or negative when it’s absent
