Which of the following blood group is considered as Universal Donor ?

  • A.A
  • B.AB
  • C.B
  • D.O

Answer: D

The universal donor is blood group O.

Group O red cells carry neither the A nor the B antigen, so they are not attacked by the anti-A or anti-B antibodies of any recipient. Strictly, O negative is the universal donor for red cells, because it also lacks the Rh antigen.

Group AB is the universal recipient, since its plasma has no anti-A or anti-B antibodies. Groups A and B can be given only to compatible recipients.
