Detailed explanation-1: -Universal donors are those with an O negative blood type. Why? O negative blood can be used in transfusions for any blood type.
Detailed explanation-2: -Type O negative blood has no antigens, it will not trigger an immune response, even if the recipient has a different blood type. As you might imagine, it’s a very popular resource on hospital shelves.
Detailed explanation-3: -People with type O-blood are called universal donors because their donated red blood cells have no A, B or Rh antigens and can therefore be safely given to people of any blood group.
Detailed explanation-4: -O negative donors are often called ‘universal donors’ because anyone can receive the red blood cells from their donations.
Detailed explanation-5: -yes, O positive blood is generally safe to be received by an O negative patient because we usually aren’t born with the antibody against Rh positive blood. It’s different from ABO groups in that development of anti-D requires exposure (isoimmunization) to the D/Rh+ antigen. Q.
