Rh blood type is determined by the presence or absence of the D antigen. People who are Rh positive have the D antigen and those that are Rh negative lack this. Some people have a variant of the D antigen, called Du. Presence of Du antigen causes lab results to report the blood type as Rh negative, although the patient behaves as an Rh positive would. Du negative means a "true Rh negative" result.
The O antigen is not an antigen that may be found on the surface of an erythrocyte. A and B antigens are present in the ABO blood group system, while the Rh antigen is part of the Rh blood group system. O blood type individuals lack A and B antigens on their red blood cells.
The most important antigens in the Rh group are the RhD antigen and the RhC, RhE, Rhc, and Rhe antigens. The RhD antigen is the most clinically significant, as the presence or absence of this antigen determines an individual's Rh blood type (positive or negative). These antigens are important in blood transfusions and can cause hemolytic disease of the newborn if not properly matched during pregnancy.
It is the equivalent to Rh negative blood. D is the antigen present on commonly termed Rh+ red cells, and the D antigen is missing on D-negative blood.
antigen D is the most important
There are about 45 different Rh antigens, the most important of which is the D-antigen.
Blood type D is not one of the four main blood type groups. There is a D antigen that is part of the Rh antigen system, but there is not a blood type group called blood type D.
