Whole blood
• One unit of donor blood collected in a suitable
anticoagulant-preservative solution and which contain
blood cells and plasma
Blood Components
•A constituent separated from whole blood, by differential
centrifugation of one donor unit or by apheresis
Cryo-poor plasma
Albumin
Factor IX concentrate
IV Immunoglobulins
Fibrinogen
1. Sealing Clips
2. Double, Triple and quadruple blood bags
3. Appropriate sticker type labels and instructions for each component
4. Gloves
Methods of Preparation
In collection of blood:
• Proper selection of donor
• Clean and aseptic venepuncture site with minimum tissue trauma
• Uninterrupted and continuous flow of blood
• Collection of correct amount of blood proportionate to anticoagulant
(450ml+/- 10%)
• Proper mixing of blood during collection to mix with anticoagulants
• Platelets should be separated within 6-8 hours from the time of
collection of blood.
In centrifugation:
• Opposing cups with blood bag and satellite bags must be equal in
weight (Proper balancing)
• Correct speed of centrifugation, time and temperature must be
maintained.
• Follow aseptic techniques & adhere to SOP
Blood Bags
• Decreases acidosis
• Improves ATP synthesis
• Shelf-life of whole blood in CPD = 28 days
Citrate Phosphate Dextrose Adenine (CPDA):
Adenine
• Helps maintain high ATP levels
• Blood collected in CDPA
• safe
• well tolerated
• 2,3 DPG levels can be maintained for 12-14days
• shelf-life = 35 days
Additive Solutions
• These solutions contain saline, adenine and glucose and are added to
the red cells after separating them from plasma. ( Preserving Solution)

• The platelets are selectively separated from the whole blood and
retained in the collection bag manufactured specially for platelet
storage.
• The platelet yield is related to donor’s platelet count, the amount of
blood processed and the volume of the product collected.
• Useful specially when providing rare group PLT & supplying HLH
matched PLT
