Blood Type B Testing Experiment

This document summarizes a blood typing lab experiment where the blood type of a student named Nichanan Suteeduangsamorn was tested. Drops of her blood were placed on a microscope slide and reacted with antibodies A, B, and AB. Her blood coagulated when exposed to antibodies B and AB, but not A, indicating her blood type is B. Based on her mother's blood type being O and father's being B, her possible genotype is determined to be IBi through Punnett square analysis. The results of the experiment confirm Nichanan's blood type is B.
