The history of ABO blood type

In 1901, Karl Landsteiner in Vienna, Austria made the discovery that all blood is not alike. There were four main 'groupings' of blood - A, B, AB and O - and they were not all compatible with each other. Because of the discovery of the ABO blood types,he earned The Nobel Prize in 1930.and in co-operation with Alexander S. Wiener the Rhesus group in 1937. Development of the Coombs test in 1945,They  received a Lasker Award for their achievement in 1946.
Since then, over 300 blood types have been discovered, all falling into one of these four major groups. Discovery of the ABO blood types has not only made the medical practice of blood transfusion a great deal safer, it has also allowed scientists to study one of the first human characteristics proven to be inherited.
