Prueba de ADN del grupo sanguíneo AB – adición para Ragdolls

The A/B blood group system holds significant clinical importance in cats, as mismatches in breeding and transfusions can lead to life-threatening hemolytic reactions even without prior sensitization. Thus, it is imperative to conduct a comprehensive genetic characterization of feline blood types to enable accurate reporting of an individual’s blood type through genetic testing.

The ‘Blood Typing AB DNA test – addition for Ragdolls’ provides further insight into whether your Ragdoll is likely to have the Serotype AB or a variant of Serotype B, which is specific to Ragdolls.
Due to the many possible mutations that can cause blood type B, it is not always possible to identify a cat’s blood type through genetics alone. The serological test (K712) should be added to directly determines blood type. This test must be done with a blood sample, rather than a saliva swab.
