Blood group O is known as the "universal donor" because it has no antigens on its red blood cells and can therefore be safely given to any blood group. Blood Group AB is known as the "universal recipient" because it has no antibodies in its plasma and so can safely receive blood from any other blood group.
Universal recipient
The four blood types are A, B, AB, and O. The universal donor is O and the universal recipient is AB
ab
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.
universal donor is blood type O because this blood type don't have antigen and it can be donated in the patient having any king of blood type while universal recipient is blood type AB because it does not have anti- body; blood type AB can receive any kind of blood type
Universal donor is Blood Type O because this blood type don't have antigen and it can be donated in the patient having any kind of blood type, while universal recipient is Blood Type AB because it does not have anti- body; Blood Type AB can receive any kind of blood type.
Of course! Type O- is the universal donor and AB+ is the universal recipient.
No, any type B blood types including B positive are not universal donors or universal recipients. Type O is the universal donor as it has neither A nor B antigen on the red cells. Type O blood donors can donate blood to anyone. Type AB is the universal recipient type and can receive blood from all blood types.
O Rh- is the universal donor and AB Rh- is the universal recipient of all blood types.
A universal donor can donate to any blood type. The only universal donor is 0 negative because it doesn't have an antigens. Antigens are things that fight off foreign objects in your body, like white blood cells. A universal recipient can receive any type of blood. The only universal recipient is AB positive.
blood type AB=universal blood recipient as it can receive any types ofblood. blood type O=universal blood donor as any types of blood can receivethe O type.
O Rh- is the universal donor and AB Rh- is the universal recipient of all blood types.
