Posted June 3, 20241 yr comment_89042 Is it just me that has missed it???????? I visited the ISBT site yesterday, and noticed that the Cost Blood Group Collection of Cs(a) and Cs(b) is no longer a Collection, but that the two antigens have been "promoted" to the CTL2 Blood Group System. I THINK that this is a recent happening. Can any member put forward a reference concerning this, as I have been unable to track anything down on Google (mind you, I hold both hands up to me being monumentally useless at driving a computer!!!!)??? Thanks in advance. Edited June 3, 20241 yr by Malcolm Needs Spelling!

The Cs a and Cs b Red Cell Antigens of the Cost Blood Group Collection Correspond to the HNA-3a and HNA-3b Neutrophil Antigens: Unexpected Twins with Implications for Sickle Cell Anemia - ScienceDirect
