Question

Under what conditions might a person with rh- blood develop rh agglutinins

Answer 1

A person who has rh- blood can develop rh agglutins through;

1. Pregnancy.
2. Transfusion.
3. Exposure to blood.

Agglutination is termed as clumping of particles. It is the process which occurs when an antigen is mixed with its corresponding antibody known as isoagglutinin.
When people are being given blood transfusion of wrong blood group then the antibodies will react incorrectly with the transfused blood group, then the erythrocytes clump up and stick together which causes them to agglutinate.
