If I have type O blood would I be a universal Donor, or recipient?
People who have type O blood are universal donors, but not universal recipients. They can donate to anyone, but can only receive blood from another type O person. This is why type O blood is always in great demand by blood banks.
is A positive blood a universal donor type?
O negative is the universal donor because when O+ve blood group is transfused to -ve blood group recipient, antibodies are produced which causes hemolysis of Rh +ve labelled blood cells. When O-ve blood is transfused to Rh +ve recipient, no antibodies are produced as donor blood has no Rh factor present on blood cells, so no transfusion reaction occurs. Thus, O -ve is universal donor.
Are all transfusions types the same?
No. Transfusions are categorized into different blood types. ABO blood types are the largest group. A person can have A, B, AB, or O type. The O is considered the universal donor and the AB is the universal recipient. That means that O is the preferred blood type of a person that is donating blood because it can be transfused into any other blood type. The AB is the preferred recipient because they can receive any of the blood types and not reject the agglutinogens, which are the proteins on the outside of red blood cells.
