0 Question: Will it ever be possible to get a blood transplant from animals? Keywords: animal, medicine Asked by pizza to Kat, Andrew, Katie, Sadaf on 20 Jun 2013.
Andrew Swale answered on 20 Jun 2013:
Currently, no – because the proteins present on the surface of the animals blood cells are different to our own and therefore incompatible
However, this does not mean that in the future it is impossible – technology could emerge whereby this incompatibility could be reversed – who knows!
