Simple blood type test to determine your ABO and Rh blood group.
A blood type test determines your ABO blood group (A, B, AB, or O) and Rh factor (positive or negative). Your blood type is determined by the presence or absence of specific antigens on the surface of your red blood cells. Knowing your blood type is essential for safe blood transfusions, organ transplants, and is important during pregnancy (Rh incompatibility can cause complications). Some research also suggests associations between blood type and susceptibility to certain diseases, though these links are still being studied.
