The outward appearance of Bolians hint at some of the facets of their internal make-up. The most obvious of these traits, their blue skin, is due to pigmentation and blood colour, as their blood is cobalt-based. This blood is much different in chemistry to that of other races, and in the case of a requirement for transfusion, extensive genetic altering must be applied to any blood taken from an alien donor. [[Vulcan]] and Bolian blood are completely incomaptible, as has been unfortunately proven through medical records: no Bolian who has received blood from a [[Vulcan]] donor has ever survived. [[Andorian]] blood is the closest match to Bolian as it is also cobalt based, but it too must be extensively altered before introduction to a Bolian patient's circulatory system.

It is also worth noting that Bolian blood is unsuitable for transfusions into other races without the same modifications in reverse: it is corrosive to other species.
