The universal recipient for plasma is someone who has blood type AB. This means that they have both A and B antigens on the surface of their red blood cells and no antibodies against either A or B blood types in their plasma. Since they do not have any antibodies against A or B antigens, they can receive plasma from donors with any blood type.
In contrast, someone with blood type O is considered the universal donor for red blood cells because their red blood cells do not have A or B antigens on their surface, and therefore their blood can be transfused to people with any blood type without causing an adverse immune reaction.
It's important to note that while someone with blood type AB can receive plasma from any donor, they still may require a specific blood type for red blood cell transfusions if they need them, as plasma and red blood cells are separate components of blood. Blood type matching is an important consideration in blood transfusions to prevent adverse immune reactions that can result in serious complications.
