Yes, people with type O blood can donate to anyone.
The four blood types are A, B, AB, and O. Blood type O is the universal donor because it does not have A or B antigens on its red blood cells. Blood type AB is the universal recipient as it does not have antibodies against A or B antigens.
i would not think so but if you transfer your blood to someone els with an incompatible blood type it could kill them.Donor O-, Recipient compatible with any type.Donor O+, Recipient compatible with O+, A+, B+, AB+; incompatible with O-, A-, B-, AB-.Donor A-, Recipient compatible with A-, A+, AB-, AB+; incompatible with O-, O+, B-, B+.Donor A+, Recipient compatible with A+, AB+; incompatible with O-, O+, A-, B-, B+, AB-.Donor AB-, Recipient compatible with AB-, AB+ onlyDonor AB+, Recipient compatible wit AB+ only.
While type O blood is known as being the universal donor, it is not a universal recipient. Type O blood can be transfused into any other blood type, but someone with type O blood could only receive a transfusion of type O blood.
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.
O Rh- is the universal donor and AB Rh- is the universal recipient of all blood types.
Type A preferred donor refers to a donor who has the same blood type as the recipient, making them the best match for a blood or organ donation. Permissible donors are those who have compatible blood types with the recipient, while incompatible donors have blood types that would cause a reaction if transplanted.
If the recipient has type B blood, they can receive either type B or type O blood. If the donor blood is type B, then the recipient can be either type B or type AB
O Rh- is the universal donor and AB Rh- is the universal recipient of all blood types.
Because the blood cells from the O-group donor have no antigens which would react with the A-antibodies in the recipient.
Any, the recipient must be the same blood type as the donor.
Yes, a person with AO genotype can donate blood to a person with blood type O because type O can receive blood from A and O blood types. The A from the donor's blood will not cause a reaction with the recipient's O blood.
No, to donate blood safely the donor and the recipient have to have the same blood type.
