Human embryonic stem cells: origins, characteristics and potential for regenerative therapyTransfusion Medicine - Tập 18 Số 1 - Trang 1-12 - 2008
Joanne C. Mountford
summary Stem cells and their use in regenerative therapies are currently hot topics in both biology and medicine. For transfusion scientists the concept of cell therapy is not a new idea but rather a fundamental practice in this field. Bone marrow transplantation was pioneered in the 1960s and relies on the capacity of haemopoietic stem cells in th...... hiện toàn bộ

Economical impact of plasma fractionation project in Iran on affordability of plasma‐derived medicinesTransfusion Medicine - Tập 19 Số 6 - Trang 363-368 - 2009
Abdol Majid Cheraghali, Reza Aboofazeli
summary.In Iran all transfusion services are concentrated under authority of one public and centralized transfusion organization which has created the opportunity of using plasma produced in its blood centers for fractionation. In 2008 voluntary and non remunerated Iranian donors donated 1.8 million units of blood. This indicates a 25/1000 donati...... hiện toàn bộ

summary. The goal of this research was to study the safety and the efficacy of transfusing citrate‐phosphate‐adenine anticoagulant‐preservative (CPDA‐1) RBC stored for up to 28 days to reduce donor exposures in premature infants. A prospective randomized two‐group study was conducted with very low‐birth‐weight premature infants that received at le...... hiện toàn bộ
Evaluation of plasma and red cells obtained after leucocyte depletion of whole bloodTransfusion Medicine - Tập 9 Số 1 - Trang 51-61 - 1999
Gary Williamson, Rider, Jonathan R. Swann, ̇Winter, Rawshan Ali, D Pamphilon
We evaluated whole blood integral filtration to produce leucocyte‐depleted red cells and plasma by using the WBF1 whole blood filter (Pall Medsep). Whole blood units were filtered after either warm (2–4 h at room temperature) or cold (12–24 h at 4 °C) holds. Filtered and control units were processed using either a bottom‐and‐top or top‐top method. Red cells were tested weekly for 6 weeks, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Mannan‐binding lectin and its role in innate immunityTransfusion Medicine - Tập 12 Số 6 - Trang 335-352 - 2002
David C. Kilpatrick
Summary Mannan‐binding lectin (MBL) is a plasma collectin (C‐type lectin with a collagen‐like domain) and is considered an important component of innate immunity. Circulating MBL is genetically determined for the major part, but plasma concentration is also markedly influenced by nongenetic factors. The carbohydrate‐binding ability of MBL can be inhibited by simple s...... hiện toàn bộ
