Influence of irradiation on in vitro red‐blood‐cell (RBC) storage variables of leucoreduced RBCs in additive solution PAGGS‐M

Background  The effect of gamma irradiation on leucoreduced red‐blood‐cells (RBCs) stored in an additive solution (AS) containing phosphate, adenine, glucose, guanosine, saline and mannitol (PAGGS‐M) has not yet been studied, and there are different recommendations about storage time of leucoreduced RBCs after irradiation.
