Many of us know and understand the classification of human blood
In addition to ABO blood classification of some sort Rhesus (Rh)
According to the ABO classification, there are four blood groups: A, B, AB and O
According to the classification of Rhesus (Rh) / Rhesus factor, blood group was divided into 8: A-, A +, B-, B +, AB-, AB + and O-, O +
What is Rhesus?
Rhesus is in addition to ABO blood classification.
Name of Rhesus taken from the
monkeys Rhesus known to have this factor in 1940 by Karl Landsteiner.
A person who was in the test result is positive, means having Rh blood group-in other words have this blood factor.
Conversely, if a person tests negative results, means having the Rh + or do not have this blood factor.
People with blood type Rh +, the surface of red blood cells have a protein antigen in the form.
Whereas a diversified Rh-blood, red blood cell surface antigen protein no.
What is the importance of Rhesus?
During this time many of us (before I) know just blood group A, B, AB and O.
Whereas the Rhesus (Rh) additional back just above the blood.
Obviously, knowledge of Rhesus (Rh) in our blood is a very important.
Rhesus relating to the antigen which means that if we have a Rhesus positive (Rh +) then transfused into the body of a person who has the blood of Rhesus negative (Rh-) then the blood cells are Rhesus negative (Rh-) will assume that the blood transfused is "enemy" so that they will develop a defense against "enemy" is.
Recipient blood cells (recipient) will form an anti-Rhesus blood transfused up will not be useful for the recipient.
However, it does not happen otherwise.
So, what special Rhesus negative (Rh-)?
The "special" cases may be less accurate in Rhesus negative (Rh-).
For an explanation based on the above, the owner of Rhesus negative blood type (A-, B-, AB-and O-) can not receive blood from donors who diversified the blood is Rhesus positive (Rh +).
In other words someone who has a negative Rhesus blood group should and can only receive blood from someone who has a Rhesus negative (Rh-) as well.
For some unknown, blood Rhesus negative (Rh-) number is very small.
This is what is adding difficulties for the individuals who have Rhesus negative (Rh-) when the need of blood.
There is only one individual air-Rhesus negative (Rh-) from 67 individuals, the presence of a Rhesus negative (Rh-) is very rare.
In developed countries, an identity card, included ABO blood group and Rhesusnya (ex: A + / B-/AB +), while in Indonesia, in ID Card only lists ABO blood group (ex: A / B / AB / O).
THEN why?
This sure is a question for you since reading the title to this line.
Remember those who have rare blood group Rhesus negative (Rh-) would be a hardship for Rh-blood owners, especially in Indonesia.
So should the people be aware of all the blood with Rhesus negative (Rh-), especially for women.
Why women? because women are in dire need of blood transfusion when giving birth, especially if there is bleeding.
Thus, with this thread I'm asking, come on, we check our blood. The Rh- or Rh + since early childhood.
To find out since daybreak, they would then be able to prepare from the beginning.
Also, come on, donate our blood.
Let us help our brothers in need.
Drop of your blood, can help others.
Specific message: the owners of the air blood Rhesus negative (Rh-) follow the community Rhesus negative. If need be able to help, and if there is a need, somehow those most in hope.
