When would you want to perform immunological testing? When you have a patient with a suspected pathogenic infection but you do not know the cause. When you want to determine a patient's blood type. When you want to see if a patient has antibodies against a specific pathogen. All of the above are possible uses for immunologic testing.

While performing a blood typing assay, the lab technician notes a reaction between the blood sample and the Anti-A serum (A antibodies). The Anti-B serum (B antibodies) and the Anti-Rh serum (Rh antibodies) cause no reaction. What type of blood is the blood sample being tested? A. A- B. A+ C. B- D. B+

What determines blood type? What type of blood antigens are expressed if a person is blood type AB-negative? Why doesn't a negative transfusion reaction occur the first time a Rh-positive patient is exposed to Rh-negative blood?
