Evaluation of a concurrent multicomponent collection system for the collection and storage of WBC‐reduced RBC apheresis concentrates

Abstract: The concurrent multicomponent collection system (Amicus) can reliably collect a standardized RBC unit of good quality. In vitro testing of the RBCs collected and stored for 42 days met the Council of Europe criteria for transfusion.

“…A possible explanation for the increased haemolysis could be the shear stress due to the multiple centrifugation steps. During MNC separation, the RBCs were exposed to low centrifugal forces of 136 g and 930 g compared to 1270 g used during the processing of homologous PRBCs from whole blood but the centrifugation time of approximately 62 min was about six times longer than during the conventional process of whole blood derived PRBCs (P < 0AE05), confirming previous results that showed the impact of mechanical forces on the extent of red cell damage [19].Potassium, lactate and pH values, in contrast, remained within the ranges of freshly collected RBCs during the whole production process [11,20]. To maintain a physiological ion gradient in RBCs, the function of the Na+ ⁄ K+ pump, which is powered by intracellular purines, is essential.…”

“…Here, we included 19 patients with myocardial infarction enclosed in the MYSTAR study, who received enriched CD34 + cells in a volume of approximately 4 ml intramyocardially [16,18]. Despite depletion of haemolytic supernatant from the remaining RBC fraction after BM procession, the recovered RBCs showed higher LDH and fHb levels as compared with unprocessed BM or homologous packed RBC concentrates (PRBCs) at the end of shelf life at day 42 [11,19,20]. In two units of recovered RBCs, haemolysis was even above the threshold of 0AE8% [14].…”

“…New technical developments allow for the collection of RBCs by apheresis (ARBCs), which is a fundamental evolution in transfusion technology and probably offers the potential for improved product consistency and quality. [1][2][3][4][5][6] From the donor's point of view, automated RBC collection is less often associated with vasovagal reactions, most likely due to better fluid balance. 7,8 Storage of RBCs suspended in a plasma-free additive solution such as saline-adenine-glucose-mannitol (SAGM) is currently limited to 42 days during which the 24-hour posttransfusion recovery decreases gradually as the so-called "storage" and "collection injuries" increase.…”

“…Briefly, the platelets are extracted using an apheresis machine (TEC.COM, Fresenius Kabi) which can lead to a reproducible platelet concentration of 850 000 units/microlitre, a value approximatively 4 times as high as in the whole blood [11]. 6 millilitres of this PRP were mixed with 300 microlitres of calcium chloride to activate the platelets.…”
