Abstract:
The increase in the maximum time of collected whole blood storage at room temperature from 8 to 24 hours should bring about the versatile benefits. For making the mentioned above change it was necessary not only to demonstrate the blood components prepared from the whole blood stored at room temperature for 24 hours should still keep their functions, but also to indicate that the increase in the time of whole blood storage at room temperature couldn't accelerate the bacterial proliferation. Therefore, the two units of whole blood were pooled,inoculated with bacteria, split again into two units,stored at room temperature for 8 and 24 hours, respectively,and then the blood components were separated. The levels of the bacteria found in the blood components were measured in the process of their storage, indicating that the whole blood stored at room temperature for 24 hours couldn't accelerate the proliferation rate of 5 common contaminating bacteria existed in the blood components in their storage process.
