Definición

  • A common term given to individuals with blood type O-negative and plasma type AB, these individuals can donate red blood cells or plasma, respectively, to any individual without the risk of a transfusion reaction. However, this term tends to be an exaggeration, as adverse reactions can still occur. [Source: Encyclopedia of Global Health; Universal Donor]
