This test will tell you to which blood group you belong (A, B, AB or O) and whether you are RhD positive or RhD negative
This in-store test will determine your blood group and is called ABO typing. There are 4 main blood groups (types of blood) – A, B, AB and O. Your blood group is determined by the genes you inherit from your parents and based on which proteins are on the surface of your red blood cells.
Â
Each group can be either RhD positive (+) or RhD negative (-), which means in total there are 8 blood groups. Blood group O is the most common group. Almost half of the UK population (48%) has blood group O.
Please note this test has a 2 to 3 day turnaround time.
A full blood count can be used to check your overall health and may help detect a wide range of issues such as infection, anaemia and leukaemia.
