No, someone with Type O blood cannot receive Type AB blood without adverse immune backlash to the donor blood. This is because the A & B refer to antigens, or proteins, on the red blood cells. Type O people have neither A nor B antigens; thus, their body, which doesn't recognize the antigens, treats the donor blood as a foreign body and attempts to eliminate it.
Here's a chart for you:
Giving Blood Type............Receiving Blood Type
O.....................................O, A, B, AB
A......................................A, AB
B......................................B, AB
AB....................................AB
The answer to your question is definitively no; however, note that there are subtypes of A, B, and AB blood types, called A plus/minus, B plus/minus, and AB plus/minus.

∙ 15y agoNo, since type O patients have anti-A and anti-B, the donated A-blood would react with the patient's anti-A Type O patients can only receive type O blood but can donate to all types Type AB can receive all types, but can donate only to AB patients

∙ 12y agoYes - when the blood groups match blood can be donated. This is because both the people with blood type A will have the same antigens and antibodies. This makes it unlikely that the blood will coagulate when mixed.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoSimple answer no. O can donate to A or B but not the reverse. A and B can donate to AB but not the reverse. Neither A or B can donate to each other. It also depands on the rh factor. Negative people can donate to positive but not the reverse. O negative can be given to anyone which is why they keep calling me at the blood bank asking for donations.

∙ 14y agono because the blood type O is universally transfusiable (to others), while putting any blood type into a type O individually would have negatory effects.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes. Because AB has no antibodies, it can receive blood from any type. A, B, O, or AB.
Wiki User
∙ 6y agoNo because the person with Type A does not have any Type B blood cells, so those would clot and kill that person.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agono only O type can donate to others

Yes, you can't donate 0 positive blood to AB negative. The rest is possible :) RV
Which blood group can receive blood from all blood group?
People with AB+ blood can receive blood of any type. This is the reason why AB+ is called the universal recipient.
Why can people with blood group ab receive blood from other blood groups but cannot donate to them?
People with blood group AB can receive blood from other blood groups but cannot donate to them because of antibodies carried on the red blood cells of group AB donors that would destroy the red cells of a blood recipient from another group.
What can AB blood donate to?
Well for starters we would have to see what RH group you are in you see AB+ can receive blood from people that are A+ A- B+ B- O+ O- AB+ AB- but can only give to people that are AB+.If you are AB- you can receive from blood types A- B- O- and AB- but you can give to people that are AB+ and AB-.

lungs can not be donated.
What blood group could a blood type AB donate to?
AB red cell donations can only be given to AB recipients. But whole blood donations are separated into different products and AB plasma can be given to other blood groups
Why is it important for AB blood types to donate blood?
It's important for anyone who can donate blood to donate, but the fact is that AB is not a donor for any blood type but its own. AB can only donate to AB. AB is, however, what is referred to as a universal recipient, meaning that someone with type AB blood can receive blood from AB, A, B, and O blood types. This being the case, it wouldn't seem that a shortage of AB blood would be a problem unless there is a generalized blood shortage of all types (which there usually is, so donate if you can spare a pint!)
