Abstract
This study was conducted to determine if single donor platelet and red cell simultaneous collection by apheresis technique can be applied to routine blood product collection at blood centers. Both apheresis red cell product and platelet product were successfully collected and mannitol, adenine, and phosphate (MAP) additive solution was added to the red cell concentrates during collection. During a 49 day storage study period, the red cell product quality was maintained and found to be equivalent to that of red cell products derived from whole blood collected by the traditional method. This study demonstrated the possibility of applying this collection method for routine use for single donor apheresis platelet product and red cell product preparation at blood centers.
