Blood Group & Rh Typing Test

Blood group and Rh typing is a test that identifies which of the four major ABO blood groups (A, B, AB, or O) you belong to, along with whether you're Rh-positive or Rh-negative.

Your blood type is determined by specific proteins, called antigens, present on the surface of your red blood cells, and it's a genetically fixed trait that never changes throughout your life.

This information is critical for safe blood transfusions, since receiving an incompatible blood type can trigger a dangerous immune reaction, and it's equally important during pregnancy, where Rh incompatibility between mother and baby needs to be identified and managed.

Blood typing is a quick, simple test that's often performed as a standard part of pre-surgical workups, prenatal care, and blood donation eligibility screening.
