Home Blood Group Test for ABO & Rhesus (D) Blood Groups
It is essential that everyone know their own blood group and that of their family members. There are many occasions when knowing your blood group could be important, for example, if you or a member of your family, required an urgent blood transfusion it would be useful to know your blood group in advance. If it was an uncommon group it would allow the hospital valuable time to ensure adequate supplies.
If you travel overseas carrying a blood group card could prove invaluable. Accidents and other emergencies can often be dealt with more efficiently knowing the blood group of the person or persons involved.
Carrying a blood group card when traveling overseas can be a lifesaver in case of an emergency. Imagine being involved in an accident or developing a serious illness far from home – knowing your blood type could expedite proper medical treatment and potentially save your life. When every second counts, having this vital information readily available removes guesswork and delays for doctors. However, even for routine medical procedures abroad, disclosing your blood group ensures compatibility and safety.
For instance, many countries have different predominant blood types than others. An O-negative person traveling to a region with higher incidences of other blood groups may face challenges accessing compatible blood supplies in an emergency. But with a card identifying their rare type, medical staff can prioritise securing matched donors or stockpiles. The same principle applies to all blood groups when navigating unfamiliar healthcare systems away from home. A simple card provides potentially life-changing information to ensure you receive the right life-saving treatment at the right time.
How accurate is this home blood test?
This home health test is very accurate and will detect the common blood grouping system A,B,O,AB and Rhesus(D). Unusual blood groups or rare sub-types will not be detected by this method. Further investigation by a blood transfusion laboratory will be necessary to identify such groups.
Please note: This home blood group test kit should not be used to determine blood type for transfusion purposes.

Instructions for using the Home Blood Testing Kit.
Read the entire instructions before carrying out the blood group test. Ensure the applicators (eldonsticks) are only used for stirring and spreading the blood. You may find this test easier to carry out if you have a friend or family member assist you.
- Wash your hands before carrying out the test and again after carrying out the test.
- Open the foil pouch containing the test card. Place the card on a table or flat surface.
- Lay out the applicators (eldonsticks) ready for use.
- Fill a small cup with tap water and using the plastic pipette, draw a small volume of the tap water into the plastic pipette. You draw the water by simply holding the small, thin end in t he water and squeezing the top part.
- With the test card still on a flat surface release one drop of water onto each of the coloured reagents spots on the EldonCard.
- Twist off the little green protective cap from the lancet. Place the lancet upon a table.
- Wipe a fingertip with the alcohol impregnated tissue provided and allow it to dry.
- Place the lancet against the end of the finger and press the green body against your finger to release the needle.
- Massage the finger from the bottom to the top to encourage bloodflow. Press the blood towards fingertip. Repeat pressing until a drop with a 3 to 4 mm (1/8 inch) diameter is seen.
- Transfer the blood to an EldonStick, approached from beneath the finger. Don’t smear the blood over the skin.
- Place the eldonstick with the drop of blood into the first circle. The blood should touch the water already present. Gently press the side of the eldonstick head against the card and stir in the water and blood mixture until the coloured dry material has dissolved.
- Repeat this procedure for the other 3 circles, making sure you use a new eldonstick for each circle. You should NEVER transfer liquid from one circle to another.
- Once all 4 circles are complete gently tilt the whole card vertically on its bottom edge and keep this position for 10 seconds. You will see the blood flowing slowly to the bottom of the circle. Repeat this procedure tilting the card on the 3 other sides.
- As soon as you have finished tilting read and record the results immediately. See the table below for how the results are interpreted.

This is the third time i’ve ordered this kit for various family members and friends. Easy to use and read results, and of course mine matches up with my recent blood group test at the hospital. I do suggest soaking the hand in warm water first to make blood easier to get out! Prompt delivery etc too.

The instructions are very clear, it was easy to order and delivery was quick and efficient. My only issue was that invalid is an option for the result and so it would be nice to have spare materials in order to have another go if this happens. However, overall, very easy to use.

Definitely recommend this test kit. I had been wondering for a long time what my blood type actually was, despite being an insulin dependant diabetic for many years, no one could or would tell me! So I must say this kit solved the mystery, turned out to be an A+ just like my mum and grandmother. The instructions are clear and super easy to follow, plus there is a video on the site if you are still unsure. I am glad I bought this kit 🙂

We happened to be travelling and my wife asked if I knew my blood group – I didn’t, like many UK citizens. I immediately tried to buy through a provider online and got nowhere, so I telephoned them and they were incredibly unhelpful. So I looked to another provider and came across Zoom Health. How refreshing! I ordered and paid for the product and received it by first class post and have been able to bring it with me. Thank you Zoom Health!

I decided to get one of these for every member of my family; knowing your blood group is so important, and when I realised that I was the only one of my three brothers and sisters and adult children that knew their blood group, I ordered a bunch of these.
Not only was it fairly painless and easy to do this test, but this company provides very detailed instructions so that it is almost impossible to mess up.
I think that everyone should get one of these tests. It’s foolproof, it comes with everything you need, and the information that you get could be lifesaving for you or another person.

This home blood yes kit was really simple to use. I was a bit worried about doing this at home but I really should not have been. The little blood pricking tool that comes with the kit is fairly painless to administer and makes a tiny, tiny hole. In fact the hole was very small that I needed to squeeze to get 4 drops of blood out. Great kit for the money though and came next day.
