That, and coming from someone who had actually performed "blood rituals"
(using my own blood only...), blood is used in MANY types of rituals and
magics... it enhances the power of what you're trying to do.  And this is
for any magic, not just Dark magic.  (Personally, I refuse to do anything
that I consider Dark Magic... which is anything that's specifically targeted
with the intent of ill will towards another... to put it in its most basic
terms.)

Also, as far as the blood in the bottle at the OotP Headquarters being in
liquid form rather than coagulated, there could easily be a spell on the
bottle to keep its contents in liquid form.
