Blood group O has both a and b antibodies, therefore receiving blood from blood group A, the A-antigens will agglutinate with the b-antibodies of the person with blood group O. Receiving blood from blood group B will also cause agglutination of its b-antigens and the blood group O's a-antibodies.

Blood group O individuals are considered universal donors because their blood cells do not have A or B antigens on their surface. If blood group O receives blood from other groups, there is a risk of a transfusion reaction where the recipient's immune system may attack the donor's blood cells which have A or B antigens. This can lead to serious complications or even death.
