Abstract :This study was carried out to compare the phenotypic distributions of ABO and Rh blood groups of individuals living in North East Anatolia versus in Southern Kazakhstan. A total of 232 samples from individuals living in North East Anatolia and a total of 324 samples from Southern Kazakhstan were collected. Antisera of collected samples were analyzed using an ELISA technique. Our findings, the A blood group was the highest (42.4%), followed by the B blood group (28%). The O blood group (24.2%) and the AB blood group (5.4%) were for North East Anatolia population. As for Rh phenotypic frequency, 85.6% of the population was Rh (+) and 14.4% of them were Rh (-) for the same population. As for the population living in Southern Kazakhstan, 38.5% of the population had the A blood group, 22.2% the B group, 33.9% the O blood group, and 5.4% of the population had the AB group. For the same population, the rate of Rh (+) was 93% and Rh (-) was 7%. we summarize that the A type and B were higher in North East Anatolia population than the Southern Kazakhstan population. On the other hand, the phenotypic distribution of the O type was higher in Southern Kazakhstan than in North East Anatolia. The AB blood group was similar in both populations The phenotypic frequency of the Rh (+) in North East Anatolia was lower than that of Southern Kazakhstan, and Rh (-) distribution in the North East Anatolia was found to be higher than in Southern KazakhstanKeywords : Blood Groups (ABO), Rh Factor, North East Anatolia, Southern Kazakhstan Populations
