Blood Grouping

Blood Grouping Reagents

Blood grouping reagents are used for the identification of blood types to ensure the total transfusional compatibility between receivers and donors.

There are 30 major blood group systems however the most important blood groups in transfusion are the ABO blood group system and the RhD blood group system.

Giving someone blood from the wrong blood group could be life-threatening. For instance, the anti-A antibodies in group B attack group A cells and vice versa. This is why group A blood must never be given to a group B person.

Our high-quality blood grouping reagents and gel cards are accurate, easy to use, competitively priced, and conveniently offered in different sizes in order to meet the needs of our distributors, blood banks, clinics, hospital laboratories and transfusion centres across the world.
