“…In this study, 2 × 20 leukocyte-depleted whole blood (LD-WB) units were investigated in a randomized controlled fashion [14]. In 1 group, an anticoagulant (citrate phosphate dextrose adenine 1; CPDA-1) was continuously added to 500 ml donated whole blood via a roller pump attached to scales, using a new blood drawing device, the 'Automat for Blood Collection' (MacoPharma ABC ® , MacoPharma, Langen, Germany).…”

“…Since red cell flexibility or deformability are major determinants of red cell viability [13], the aim of this study was to investigate, in addition to established biochemical markers, rheological properties of red cells at different shear rates in leukocyte-depleted whole blood over a 7-week storage period. This study is a post hoc analysis of a randomized experiment comparing different blood collection methods [14].…”

KeywordsATP content · Deformability · Quality · Red cell storage · Storage lesion · In vivo survival · Whole blood Summary Background: Storage duration of red cells has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality following transfusion. This association has been attributed to the loss of deformability of stored red cells leading to deterioration of microvascular perfusion. ATP content is considered a critical determinant of the deformability of stored red cells. Methods: ATP content and deformability were determined after storage for up to 49 days in 40 leukocyte-depleted whole blood units. Red cell deformability was determined using a laser-assisted optical rotational cell analyzer (LORCA ® ) employing shear stress (SS) ranging from 0.3 to 30 Pa. Deformability was expressed as the elongation index (EI). EI was correlated with ATP content. Results: ATP content decreased from 3.5 to 1.7 mol/g hemoglobin. EI increased from 0.03 to 0.05 at an SS of 0.
