Safety and tolerability of amustaline/glutathione pathogen‐reduced red blood cells in neonatal rats
Abstract Background Amustaline (S‐303)/glutathione (GSH) pathogen‐reduced red blood cells (PR‐RBCs) are in development for all adult and pediatric RBC transfusion indications, including neonates and infants. A neonatal rat model evaluated the safety and tolerability of PR‐RBCs during growth and maturation. Study Design and Methods Repeated transfusions
