For most blood donations, people hear about whole blood donation. This is blood that contains red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. However, the different cells and substances in the blood can be separated and donated individually. While red blood cell transfusions usually ...
'A person can donate apheresis platelets every 14 days as platelets can be given safely up to 24 times per year with no adverse side effects to the donor, while platelets can also be given through normal blood donation and we will be separating the platelet in our laboratory,' Brillantes ad...
Donors find fulfillment in more frequent donations than are possible with whole blood and know that their donation fills a special need. New technology allows leukocyte reduction in the collection of the component with or without the use of filtration. Matching for refractory patients is possible. ...
All blood types,except for type O negative and type B negative, are encouraged to try platelet donation. Type O negative and type B negative can make the most impact for patients in need by continuing to give whole blood or a Power Red donation. If you are type AB you can make the mo...

aIt may come as a surprise, but whole blood is only rarely used. Different blood components are used to treat a range of conditions. None goes to waste. Read blood cells are frequently used to replace heavy blood loss after an accident, surgery or childbirth. White blood cells and antibodie...
To evaluate the ability of activated platelets from adults to bind VWF, citrated- 476 SCHMUGGE ET AL whole blood was exposed to thrombin (0.1 or 1 U/mL) or ADP (5 or 10 M) before fixation and staining, as described else- where (30, 33). In brief, 45 L of citrated ...
The in vitro results reveal that both stents reduce thrombus formation by approximately 50% when human anticoagulated whole blood was perfused through macrofluidic flow chambers coated with either collagen or human atherosclerotic plaque homogenates. Simulations predict that the primary cause is reduced ...
whole bloodPlatelet concentrates for prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of patients can be isolated from whole blood using the platelet-rich plasma-method or the buffy coat-method on one hand, or can be collected by apheresis with return of unwanted blood cells to the donor on the other hand...
