Spring 2013
There has been significant interest in the literature on the possibility of using red blood cells (RBCs) derived from umbilical cord blood (cord RBCs) for neonatal transfusions. Low stability of cord RBCs during hypothermic storage necessitates the development of a cryopreservation method to...

Identifying and Characterizing Red Blood Cell Microvesiculation, Phosphatidylserine and CD47 Expression As a Predictor of Red Blood Cell In Vitro Quality Following Hypothermic Storage
DownloadSpring 2013
Abstract: Proper preservation of the quality of stored red blood cells (RBC) is fundamental for successful blood transfusion. RBC microparticles (RMPs) have been shown to be harmful effectors of inflammation and coagulation posttransfusion, as well as in vitro indicators of RBC function and...
