“…Table 5 shows the variation in ABO blood group and Rhesus factor in Indian and International studies. [ 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 ] The present study exhibits that A, AB, and Rh negative blood groups are having the highest prevalence of 30.39%, 11.70%, and 6.49% respectively which is comparatively higher than previous similar studies. Another blood group in the present study B is having last second lowest prevalence (31.39%) when compared among Indian studies but international studies were found second highest prevalence percentage.…”

“…Distribution pattern of blood groups of the present study was compared with the recent studies done across India at Andhra Pradesh,[ 15 ] Jharkhand,[ 16 ] Delhi and Uttarakhand,[ 17 ] Madhya Pradesh,[ 18 ] Karnataka,[ 19 ] and Assam. [ 20 ] The present study revealed that the most common blood group was “B” and the least common was “AB” which is similar to result found in Jharkhand, Delhi, Uttarakhand, and Madhya Pradesh but differs from the other studies.…”

Objective:To determine the prevalence of ABO and Rh blood groups based on the antigenic presence on the surface of red blood cells with respect to gender and calculate allele frequency of the blood groups. Globally, approximately 700 type red cell antigens have been identified till now. ABO and Rh blood groups play an important role in the process of blood transfusion, resolving certain medicolegal issues, parental testing, and various genetic studies.Methods:This study was conducted in H.N.B. Base Hospital, Srinagar, Uttarakhand, from January 2012 to December 2016. Relevant data of blood donors were collected from blood bank department of the hospital. Blood grouping was conducted using commercially available standard monoclonal antisera applying test tube and column agglutination techniques.Results:Out of 9883 individuals, 9333 (92.4%) were males and 750 (7.6%) were female individuals. The most common blood group found was B (31.68%) and least common being AB (11.70%). The prevalence of Rhesus positive and negative distribution in the present studied population was found as 93.51% and 6.49%, respectively. Overall, male ABO group pattern found was shown by formula B > A > O > AB which was similar among Rh-positive male individuals while Rh-negative males' pattern was found as A > B = O > AB. In females, ABO group pattern was B > O > A > AB which was similar to Rh-positive female pattern while differs in Rh negative. The estimated allele frequencies were found as 0.2403, 0.2475, and 0.5122 for IA (p), IB (q), and IO (r), respectively.Conclusion:The most common blood group found among the Gharwali donors was B positive while the least common was AB negative, which plays an important contribution for making government policies to develop National Health Program.
