Blood group antigens are specific molecules found on the surface of red blood cells, which are crucial for determining an individual's blood type. These antigens are glycoproteins or glycolipids, and their structure is genetically inherited. The ABO blood group system and the Rh system are the most important for transfusions. In the ABO system, the blood group is determined by the presence or absence of two antigens: A and B. Type A blood has A antigens, type B has B antigens, type AB has both, and type O has neither. These antigens are attached
