Abstract:Using immunoelectron microscopy, the distribution of the H antigen sites
on human erythrocytes was observed in 40 samples of adult, newborn and fetal blood of
different ABO phenotypes. The attached ferritin particles indicating the H antigen sites
conspicuously varied in number from cell to cell in every specimen. The number of H
antigen sites per single red cell was estimated on an average for each sample as follows :
O, 3 x 10^5; B, 2 x 10^5; A(1), 1.5 x 10^5; A(1)B, 10^5; A2B, 1.5 x 10^5; Ax, 2.5 x10^5; AxB… Show more
