Neocyte‐enriched blood does not provide a survival advantage for red cells when compared to conventional filtered blood

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Red blood cell (RBC) concentrates are stored at 1–6°C for up to 42 days, but storage lesions can lead to wastage. Pooled neocytes may extend RBC shelf‐life, benefiting patients who require frequent transfusions. This study aimed to improve the longevity of stored RBCs by isolating neocytes and comparing the rate of ...

In vitro quality of whole blood‐derived red cell concentrates collected, processed and stored in a blood bag set plasticized with di (2‐ethylhexyl) terephthalate

open access: yesVox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Due to toxicity concerns, di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP)—the most used plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) whole blood (WB) collection and processing bag sets—will be effectively prohibited in medical devices in Europe from 2030. Removal of DEHP will primarily impact the in vitro quality of red blood cell (RBC)
