Group A – has only the A antigen on red cells (and B antibody in the plasma)
Group B – has only the B antigen on red cells (and A antibody in the plasma)
Group AB – has both A and B antigens on red cells (but neither A nor B antibody in the plasma)
Group O – has neither A nor B antigens on red cells (but both A and B antibody are in the plasma)
There are very specific ways in which blood types must be matched for a safe transfusion.
Group O can donate red blood cells to anybody. It is the universal donor.
Group A can donate red blood cells to A's and AB's.
Group B can donate red blood cells to B's and AB 's.
Group AB can donate to other AB's, but can receive from all others.
