I just want to say thank you. For years, I have struggled with understanding ABO blood groups, and I have had to keep watching videos over and over to cram the idea in without fully understanding. It's really important to have a solid understanding of this as being on the wards, it became so apparent that transfusions are so common. I think the issue I was having with other videos is that people would not explain the bit about the donation of blood, and how you can remove the plasma and only donate the RBCs and you can leave out the antibodies- and this is why O blood type is so useful as you say, because it has no antigens, therefore, no matter the blood type and the antibodies in the plasma, there would be no reaction because O has no antigens. No one explained this, so i thought on the basis of donation, that the plasma was also given and would get confused as to how agglutination would not occur since O blood group has both antibodies. Truly exceptional video!

"when blood is transfused we can actually separate out the red blood cells from the donated sample of the blood. From the rest of the blood. We could remove all the plasma.

[@FireballVFX]

I have couple questions: 1) is it known why do we have different blood types? why nature doesn't have just one universal type? 2) if O blood is donated to A blood, does O receive A's antigens and transform into A blood type? If yes, is it applied to all blood types? 3) if my blood is donated to another person, will he receive my DNA that comes along with the cell?

[@binkyboobosh1]

,,,,question 1....it's just a genetic possibility based on regional genetic development...the same with hair, eye and skin colours. Nothing special. It's said that group AB is a comparatively recent development based on interaction between Mongolian and central European populations. Question 2...it just merges with the existing blood in the body and there are no adverse reactions as long as there is no possibility of conflicting antigens and antibodies. See it as the same as pouring water in a leaking bath...there are only issues if the water has bleach in it at which point the bath water becomes toxic. Question 3...yes, but it will not excite your antibodies to attack it. Blood refreshes itself quite quickly and there will be no adverse reactions as the new, specific genetic code will soon be merged and then replaced. Water can be introduced into the blood stream to aid hydration as can glucose and sodium etc. and it's doesn't get attacked, either...

Dear sir, I have a question, According to the explanation, When donor's blood group is 100%same as the receiver's blood group, then you don't have to extract the plasma from donor's blood sample. But imagine, If donor's Blood group is A, and the receiver's blood group is AB, then you must extract the donor's blood plasma and remove it. because, donor's blood plasma contains B antibodies and they can react with the receiver's Blood Cells. Am I right ?

[@fernandogomez7658]

I probably misunderstood your explanation about the O blood type. It has no antigens A or B, but it has both antibodies A and B. So, if this type of blood is donated to say A which has A antigens and B antibodies, wouldn't the A antibodies contained in the O cause a reaction with the A antigens?

Only the Blood cells are transfused not the plasma which contains the antibodies

[@yuanchen1019]

When giving O blood to a patient with A blood, O blood has A and B antibodies. Can they interact with A antigen in a patient with A blood?

[@lina_cats]

had same question, clearly not many paid attention.only explanation is that we donate RBCs only an not thhe plasma that contains antibodies

[@kipchickensout]

you said we _can_ remove the plasma when giving a transfusion, let's say when donating O to A or B, is it always necessary to do so? I always thought you can just take blood and donate it without altering it in any way 🤔 but according to this it would be dangerous right

[@PreciousLawrence-ir2bw]

Excellence lesson ❤

[@BabyKandFam]

I have a question, I was told I have O+ Blood, but when my blood was looked at I was told I also lack an entire group of antibodies, and that my doctor had never seen that before. Do you know what this could mean? I have been confused ever since as to if something is wrong with me or not and if this would cause problems if I ever needed a blood transfusion. I already know O types don’t have antigens, but what does me missing a whole antibody group as well mean?

[@zeliyamwanza8042]

Well explained

[@moonbeam2062]

I have an idea for a new video for you. Do a video on the rare blood type, cis-AB. This blood type which is the result a rare mutation is generally the same as a normal AB blood type in regards to the transfusion compatibilities etc, The difference in the cis-AB blood type from a normal AB type is in how it's constructed. Normal AB blood types as you know, inherit an A allele from one parent and a B allele from the other parent. But one of the two alleles in the cis-AB type person is an AB allele all its own. (Both the A & B versions of a blood type gene are found on one Allele). So, a person who has this blood type possess one allele being AB and the other allele being any of the other normal ABO types. This mutated cis-AB allele will dominate the other allele type no matter what type it is, resulting in the person always presenting as having AB type blood. One unique thing about a cis-AB person is that if for example, the genotype version combination of that person is the cis-AB allele and an O allele, that person could actually possibly parent a type O child if the other parent also possessed an O allele, which is something that would be impossible with a normal AB phenotype because a normal type AB person only has an A allele and a B allele to work with. The cis-AB blood type is very, very rare around the world, but is mostly found in the Korean and Japanese populations, But even in those populations it reaches a frequency of only 0.035% in Korea and 0.0012% in Japan.

[@ivansepulveda854]

I like people like you no homo ... You are very expressive, which makes you very rare just like the blood type that you are trying to describe

[@mandiduhon4724]

How can I determine if I have Cis-AB ? I was told I am AB- and my child is o+ . Recently my child was confirmed that he is O+. My question is also that proving maternity with Cis-AB is easier than if you had chimerism ( which is way different than a mutation). I also have health issues so I want to make sure my blood group/type is correct so if anything, I won't be giving the wrong blood if needed.

[@abdulrashid6017]

[@dinosouth7909]

Most people thinking about blood donations would imagine the entire blood is being donated - cells + plasma. But in reality the agglutination they are trying to avoid is only looking at donations of blood cells not the plasma. Plasma donations are a different set of rules.
