Abstract Blood group determination is a fundamental diagnostic procedure in clinical medicine, playing a critical role in safe blood transfusion, organ transplantation, and emergency healthcare management. Conventional blood typing techniques, such as slide agglutination, tube methods, and gel card assays, require direct blood sampling, laboratory infrastructure, and skilled personnel. These requirements limit their applicability in emergency situations, rural healthcare settings, and field-based diagnostics.
The present project aims to design and develop a portable, non-invasive blood typing system utilizing fingerprint residue analysis as an alternative diagnostic medium. Fingerprints are known to contain trace biological components, including sweat, proteins, amino acids, and cellular debris, which may carry biochemical markers indirectly associated with blood group antigens. The proposed system explores the interaction between these biological residues and chemically treated reagents that mimic conventional antigen–antibody reactions.
The device integrates a sensor-based detection system, including optical or colorimetric sensors, coupled with a microcontroller for automated signal processing and result interpretation. Upon placement of a fingerprint on the reagent-coated surface, chemical interactions produce detectable changes such as color variation or turbidity, which are captured by sensors and analyzed digitally.
This approach provides a rapid, user-friendly, and minimally invasive method for preliminary blood group identification. While the system is not intended to replace standard laboratory methods, it serves as a screening tool that can significantly enhance accessibility and response time in emergency and resource-limited settings.The proposed device has potential applications in ambulances, rural healthcare centers, forensic science, military operations, and disaster management scenarios. However, further research and clinical validation are required to improve accuracy, reliability, and scalability of the system
