BACKGROUND Gamma irradiation of blood products is used to prevent transfusion-associated graft-versus-host disease by inhibiting the proliferation of lymphocytes that are implicated in the disease. Gamma irradiation also damages the red blood cells (

Background: Blood transfusions are routine medical procedures in which stored blood or blood products (i.e., red blood cells, RBCs) are given to the patient to prevent adverse health outcomes due to acute or chronic anemia. The current regulations re

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) remains a significant cause of transfusion-related mortality with red cell transfusion. We hypothesize that prestorage filtration may reduce proinflammatory activity in the red blood cell (RBC) supernatan

Background The safety of red blood cells (RBCs) is of concern because of the occurrence of four transfusion-transmitted variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) cases in the United Kingdom. The absence of validated screening tests requires the use of

BACKGROUND: The clearance of infectious prions from biologic fluids is usually quantified by bioassays based on intracerebral inoculation of hamsters or mice; these tests are slow, cumbersome, imprecise, and very expensive. In the present study we de

Background and Objectives Currently, stem cells and other progenitor cells are obtained from human umbilical cord blood (HUCB) using a variety of methods that are designed primarily for red blood cell depletion and volume reduction prior to freezing

Three recent probable cases of transmission of a variant of human Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) through blood transfusion suggest that the disease can be transmitted through transfusion of blood components from presymptomatic blood donors. In this

Hematology analyzers designed to count platelets in samples of whole blood are used to enumerate the total number of platelets in components prepared for transfusion. This report addresses the issue of variability in platelet counts obtained with dif

During their 120-day life span, human red blood cells (RBC) undergo several physicochemical changes, including an increased tendency to aggregate in plasma or polymer solutions. This study was designed to examine potential associations between age-re

Red blood cell (RBC) hemolysis has been reported in units of RBC for transfusion. This has significant clinical implications for transfused patients because the free hemoglobin dissociates into dimers that have to be bound to haptoglobin to be remove
