Evaluation of the sensitivity of red blood cell markers to detect photodynamic membrane damage

BACKGROUND: Photodynamic dyes have been used to investigate pathogen reduction methods in RBC suspen‐sions, but treatment with sensitizers and light can produce unwanted membrane damage during routine blood bank storage. This study compares the relative sensitivity of three assays for detecting RBC membrane damage.
