Which blood type could be given as a transfusion for patient with AB blood when the RH factor is unknown?

A patient with AB blood can receive blood from any ABO blood type (A, B, AB, or O) because AB individuals have both A and B antigens and can accept all blood types. When the Rh factor is unknown, it is safest to transfuse Rh-negative blood to avoid potential complications. Therefore, O-negative blood would be the best choice, as it is considered the universal donor and is safe for all recipients.

Why can a person with AB blood type give blood only to people with AB blood type?

AnswerThey are universal acceptors, just like type O is a universal donor. The technical reasons... I cannot explain. Wait for a doctor to help you with that part.They can accept the various blood types because AB blood contains the antigens on the red blood cells for A and B (RBC) that allow the body (immune system) to identify all A blood as safe ... B blood as safe and O blood (has no antigens on the RBC), as safe (no intruder).Any donor blood must have the same antigens as the acceptor.

Why anti A of O group not reacting with antigen A of A blood group?

In the ABO blood group system, individuals with blood type O do not have the A or B antigens on their red blood cells. Therefore, there is nothing for the anti-A antibodies in the plasma of an O blood type individual to react with when encountering blood from an individual with blood type A. As a result, there is no agglutination or clumping reaction between anti-A antibodies and A antigen on red blood cells, making it safe to transfuse blood between these blood types.
