Rh antigen explained
Hi! Welcome to Blood Talks!
Rh antigen is important in transfusion medicine. Knowing how to read and write in both Fisher-Race and Wiener terminology is importance in communication amount blood bankers.
Correction
1:31 It is Rh antibody not Rh antigen
6:00 and 9:00 Rh negative patient with E antigen and no c antigen.
Since, this patient has no c antigen the patient is most likely to express C on the RBC. In another word this patient is Rh negative with E antigen and C antigen. This translates into dCE in Fisher-Race or r^y in Weiner terminology.
Note: the patient can be both c and C negative; however, it is less common.
Sorry about that guys

Welcome to Blood Talks Fam. Blood Talks offers you a peek into how clinical laboratory scientists (CLS) or medical laboratory technologists (MLT) work in a hospital. CLS/MLT hold an important role in the healthcare system, but unfortunately, many people do not know that they even exist, simply because most of CLS/MLT work is done behind the scenes. In this channel, you can find explanations from a clinical laboratory point of view. I hope you enjoy and learn something you did not know before.

Might be wrong here, but I thought c and C, along with E and e, are different antigens. From what I remember, lowercase only represents absence on d, and instead signify a different antigen on c and e.

You are not wrong. I know it may be confusing at times. There are genotype and phenotype. The genotype is what pair the we got from one from mother and another from father. Phenotype is what express. The gene C, c, E, e make antigens that can express on the RBC.
In 6:00 it should be d C E. Because the missing is small c antigen. Remember that small c is also expressed in the rbc. So it should be d C E

Hi Jean Claude! You are absolutely correct. I make a mistake. I apologized for that and thank you for pointing that out. I hope whoever watch this in the future see the blur and come down to read this comment. Rh negative patient with E antigen and no c antigen. Since, this patient has no c antigen the patient is most likely to express C on the RBC. In another word this patient is Rh negative with E antigen and C antigen. This translates into dCE in Fisher-Race or r^y in Weiner terminology. Note: the patient can be both c and C negative; however, it is less common.
Very useful..... thanks ma'am

What if the patient has lil c antigen, how do we express it ?
Lovely video but the table @7:43 has R0 to r''. Shouldn't it be just r. Also where R1 is, shouldn't it be r' across from it and R2 should have r'' parallel? Please clarify. Thanks alot

@ C Wynt You are correct if you do a direct translation from Rh positive to Rh negative. Now that you have point it out, I can see how it could be confusion. I'm sorry about that. The table was just to show the different way you can write using Wiener Terminology when you have Rh positive or Rh negative patient. Please refer to this www.labce.com/spg1463242_fisher_race_and_wiener_terminology_road_map.aspx

B is the blood type and the Rh+ an antigen on the RBC. The present of the antigen generally represent as positive and the absence of the antigen generally represent as negative.
