A. Safe transfusion of blood (red cells) depends upon the match between the donor’s red cells and antibodies in the patient’s blood. A and B are markers (antigens) on the surface of the red cells. People carry antibodies in the liquid part of their blood that are directed against the markers that are absent on their red cells.
