Chapter 43, Problem 3.3A
Summary Introduction
To fill:
The correct term in the given blank.
Introduction:
Blood typing involves identifying the protein substances called antigens that are present on the outer surfaces of red blood cell membranes. Many different antigens are associated with the human red blood cells, and a few of them are of clinical importance. These include the antigens of the ABO group and those of the Rh group.
