Abstract:Red blood cell (RBC) transfusions represent a cornerstone of clinical practice, with RBCs constituting the primary component in transfusion therapy. Extending the preservation of RBCs while maintaining their functional integrity would offer considerable advancements for both transfusion medicine and military healthcare. Despite decades of research, progress in achieving long‐term RBC preservation has been limited. A key challenge is the range of physical and biochemical damage RBCs incur during storage, leadin… Show more
