Rh Type
Testing with Anti-D reagent is necessary to determine if red blood cells possess or lack the D blood group antigen. Agglutination of red blood cells with Anti-D reagent is a positive test result, which indicates the presence of the D antigen on the red blood cells. Absence of agglutination is a negative test result, which indicates the D antigen is not demonstrable. A test for weak D may be performed on samples that test negative with Anti-D to determine the Rh status.
