The ABO system consists of A, B, AB, and O blood types. People with type A have antibodies in the blood against type B. People with type B have antibodies in the blood against type A. People with AB have no anti-A or anti-B antibodies. People with type O have both anti-A and anti-B antibodies.
People with type AB blood are considered universal blood recipients. The reason is that AB blood types do not contain natural antibodies against the ABO blood groups and this avoids incompatibility reactions when a person who is blood group AB receives blood from a donor who has another ABO blood group.
