If O type of blood group has both antibodies A and B, then it can react with all types,i.e, A,B & AB. Then why is O blood group called the universal donor?

Answers

Answered by madi

Blood group O has antibodies against antigens A and B. Blood group A has A antigen. If someone with blood group A receives donor blood with group O, then anti-A antibodies in the donor blood should attack the A antigens in the recipient's blood. Shouldn't this be a problem?
