Successful in vivo recovery and extended storage of additive solution (AS)‐5 red blood cells after deglycerolization and resuspension in AS‐3 for 15 days with an automated closed system

Abstract

With processing on the ACP 215 system, CPD/AS-5 LR and NLR thawed RBC units can be stored for up to 14 days after frozen storage at -65 degrees C or colder in EVA or PVC bags with acceptable in vivo and in vitro RBC quality.
