Best Answer

AB blood has no antibodies to the antigens found on any type of blood, and therefore (as long as the rhesus factors allow) can receive any blood type, B included.

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!)


What blood type can receive only from its own type?

A person with type O blood can only get a transfusion using type O blood. Someone with type A or B blood, however, can get a transfusion with their own type blood or with type O blood, which is known as a universal blood type.


To which blood type can a AB type donate?

Yes. O- can donate to all blood types. O+ can only donate to other positive blood types, including AB+.
