People Also Ask about

What type of discrepancy is acquired by B?

ABO discrepancies occur any time the interpretations of a person's red cell and serum grouping do not agree. ABO discrepancy takes on many forms, and acquired B is a great, if not terribly common, example.

What is acquired B blood type?

Acquired B phenomenon — a temporary condition caused by bacterial enzymes that modify the A antigen on the cell surface, making them temporarily look like B antigens.

Which typing results are most likely to occur when a patient has an acquired B antigen?

(7) Which typing results are most likely to occur when a patient has an acquired B antigen? In forward typing, a 1+ reaction with anti-B is suspicious because of the weak reaction and the normal reverse grouping that appears to be group A. This may be indicative of an acquired antigen.

How to resolve acquired B discrepancy?

This ABO discrepancy can be resolved by testing patient plasma with patient red blood cells. Patients who are truly group A, without any true B antigen, will demonstrate a negative auto control.

How to resolve reverse typing discrepancy?

Repeating the test with washed cells typically resolves the discrepancy. In cases of reverse typing discrepancies, clinicians may utilize a saline replacement technique.

What is the correct description for group II ABO discrepancies?

Group II - Discrepancies that are associated with unexpected or atypical reactions in the forward grouping, specifically mixed field reactions.

What bacteria causes acquired B phenomenon?

Usually, acquired B occurs when the RBCs from a blood group A patient come in contact with bacterial enzymes known as “deacetylases” carried by bacteria that live in the colon (typically gram-negative rods).

What causes false results in blood grouping?

False positive or false negative results can occur due to contamination of test materials, improper reaction temperature, improper storage of materials, omission of test reagents and certain disease states. Suppressed or weak expression of blood group antigens may give rise to false negative reactions.
