1) Obtain two sequences of DNA through PCR, the first containing the deletion site at 258, and the second containing the SNP site at 700

2) Use restriction enzyme KPNI on the first fragment to cut the O alleles only, and use restriction enzyme ALUI on the second fragment to cut the B alleles only.  
2) Use restriction enzyme KPN I on the first fragment to cut the O alleles only, and use restriction enzyme ALU I on the second fragment to cut the B alleles only.  


3) Do gel electrophoresis on the resulting fragments, hopefully resulting in distinguishable bands to show the 6 different alleles. We should then be able to determine an individual's blood type.

Sigma aldrich have [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/r1258?lang=en&region=GB KPNI] and [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/r1258?lang=en&region=GB ALUI]
Sigma aldrich have [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/r1258?lang=en&region=GB KPN I] and [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/catalog/product/sigma/r1258?lang=en&region=GB ALU I]. I couldn't find them on NBS bio.
 
If we do need high quality agarose sigma has it [http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/life-science/molecular-biology/nucleic-acid-electrophoresis/agarose-and-acrylamide.html here.]
