What is your Blood Group ? Every person should know about this.

Whenever we go to our Doctor, they usually ask about our blood group or even in our some important ID cards, We mention our blood group. Thanks to Karl Landsteiner of Austria who was awarded Nobel Prize in 1930 for his excellent contribution in Physiology for their discovery of human blood groups.

Because of this great medical professional , today we are able to know our blood group as A,B,AB and O.

There are 8 Blood Groups - A+, A-, B+,B-, AB+, AB-, O+, O- and the +/- depends on Rh factor. Rh factor found on the red blood cell's surface. This is also an antigen and those who have it are called Rh+. Those who haven't are called Rh-. This Rh factor decides the +/-.
