Golden Blood

What is Golden Blood? Does it really exist?

Hey my viewers, 

You may be wondering, what the golden blood is again ! So , before we discuss about the Golden Blood , you must need to know about Rh Blood Group System & Rh-null Blood. So let's start ❤️

Rh Blood Group System:- 

The Rh blood group system is one of 36 known human blood group systems. It is the second most important blood group system, after the ABO blood group system. The Rh blood group system consists of 49 defined blood group antigens, among which the five antigens D, C, c, E, and e are the most important.

Rh-null Blood:-

If blood  lacks all of the 61 possible antigens in the Rh system then it's called Rh-null Blood.This not only makes it rare, but this also means it can be accepted by anyone with a rare blood type within the Rh system. This is why it is considered "golden blood.

What is Golden Blood?

One of the rarest blood types in the world is Rh-null , sometimes referred to as Golden Blood.

You may already know your blood type: whether it’s A, B, AB or O, and whether it’s positive or negative. But those are just the most common categories—what about the rest? What about people with ‘rare’ blood?

There are hundreds of different antigens across more than 36 blood group systems that may be present on our red blood cells. For example, you may have AB blood in the ABO blood group system, be Rh positive in the Rh system, as well as being K positive in the Kell system, and so on.

You have a ‘rare’ blood type if your blood is missing an antigen which is common to most people, or if it has an antigen which most people don’t have. Say your blood lacks an antigen which is present on the red cells of the majority of the population. If you receive a transfusion of ‘ordinary’ blood which has that common antigen, it will be recognised as foreign, triggering an immune response with potentially catastrophic results (harmful or disastrous)
