    EXPERIMENT 3 BLOOD TYPİNG ABSTRACT The purpose of this lab is to determine the blood type of two samples. The objectives of the blood typing lab were to learn about antigens and the consequences of incompatibility, blood typing, and to illustrate antigen-antibody complexes and agglutination. INTRODUCTION Red blood cells have glycoproteins on their surface which act like "flags" to identify the cells. The glycoproteins are coded for by the blood type genes A, B, and O.

    Another group of antigens that is of much less importance than the HLA antigens is the ABO antigens. This is because, in mixed leukocyte cultures, ABO incompatibility does not cause stimulation. However, they are still important since ABO incompatibility can cause acute rejection of grafts with primary blood supply such as the kidney and the heart. This is mainly due to the high degree of expression ABO blood group antigens in internal organs. Secondly, antibodies to the blood group antigens are
