A novel Bw11 subtype was identified, characterized by a specific genetic variant (nt695T>C) weakening B antigen expression. Molecular methods accurately identified this ABO subtype, crucial for avoiding misclassification as type O.
Area of Science:
- Transfusion Medicine
- Immunogenetics
- Clinical Laboratory Science
Background:
- ABO blood group system is critical for transfusion safety.
- Subtypes within ABO groups can lead to discrepancies in serological testing.
- Accurate identification of ABO subtypes is essential for preventing transfusion reactions.
