New applications, such as their use in transfusions, require rapid quality release as cord blood red blood cells (CB-RBC) have a shorter shelf life.Study design and methods: This project aims to investigate the most prevalent microbial contaminants in CB preparations and validate a rapid sterility testing strategy for CB-RBC based on an automated system (BACT/ALERT®) in tandem with a molecular assay (real-time PCR) capable of detecting at least 100 CFU/mL of Cutibacterium acnes in CB-RBC to accelerate the detection of the most common slow-growing bacteria.Results: Microbial contamination incidence was assessed by reviewing 4696 CB sterility tests, revealing a positivity rate of 3.4%, with C. acnes being the most common slow-growing pathogen. The BACT/ALERT® system, which was validated according to European Pharmacopeia guidelines, was an appropriate method for sterility testing of CB-RBC, although it required up to 14 days of culture to detect C. acnes when iFAPlus and iFNPlus bottles were used to neutralize antimicrobials. Interestingly, the BACT/ALERT® method detected C. acnes at 30 CFU/mL within 14 days, while real-time PCR identified concentrations ≥65 CFU/mL by Day 4.Discussion: In conclusion, we developed a rapid sterility testing strategy that combines automated culture systems and real-time PCR for early microbial contamination, enhancing CB-RBC shelf life for transfusion and emphasizing the importance of combining detection methods.","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142795220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The steps required for blood product delivery are often misunderstood by providers, leading to numerous phone calls to the blood bank requesting order status. Distracting calls can lengthen turnaround time, especially during blood product or staff shortages. We sought a tool to address these questions and reduce distraction. This study highlights a novel blood tracker tool implemented in the electronic health record (EHR) that allows providers to see their blood order's status.Study design and methods: With a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, we constructed a user-friendly blood tracker highly visible in our EHR. It shows the status of a blood product in real time from \"order printed\" to \"preparing\" to \"on its way.\" We surveyed blood bank technologists to determine if call volume and distraction changed.Results: We counted the number of views per month as a surrogate of usage. The blood tracker was viewed 109,626 times per month on average from January through December 2023. The fraction of technologists who received 21 or more calls per shift decreased by 47%.Discussion: We successfully constructed and implemented a novel blood tracker into our EHR that relays the status of a blood product. It is a highly viewed piece of information in our EHR and decreases blood bank call volume as reported by blood bank technologists. Its success demonstrates that closed-loop communication between the lab and providers regarding blood products is beneficial within our organization and potentially others.","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142795218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its primary advantage over the COBE 2991, previously used to cryopreserve RCCs, is that it maintains a closed system enabling extended post-thaw expiry. However, it was observed that post-deglycerolization hematocrits (Hct) of units processed with the LN236 kit are markedly lower than those processed using the COBE 2991. Therefore, we intended to determine whether a modified process using a smaller volume deglycerolization kit (LN235) could increase the final Hct with limited deleterious effects on product characteristics.Study design and methods: Two proof-of-concept (POC) studies, conducted to determine the feasibility of using the LN235 processing kit for deglycerolization, identified the necessary modifications to the pre- and post-deglycerolization process, after which a two-part study characterized the modified protocol. The impact of pre-cryopreservation storage duration (7-21 days), input red cell mass, and the type of CPD/SAGM RCC production method (red cell filtration and whole blood filtration) were investigated.Results: Using the LN235 kit in conjunction with a volume reduction step for RCCs with a red cell mass exceeding 180 mL allowed for an ~8% increase in Hct. As expected, slightly lower recoveries were seen for large RCCs due to volume reduction; however, there were no other detrimental outcomes on product quality.Conclusions: Leveraging the LN235 kit, recommended by Haemonetics for units with a red cell mass of ≤180 mL, can be used to increase the post-deglycerolization Hct of RCCs that exceed this volume.","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142795221","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inline system was developed by Therakos in 1987. Recently, Fresenius Kabi implemented an integration of cell separator Amicus and a UVA photoactivation device (Phelix), realizing an inline photopheresis system.Study design and methods: In 2022 we designed a prospective paired crossover trial (NCT05718674) comparing two integrated ECP protocols: Therakos CELLEX and Amicus ECP system. Twenty patients affected by corticosteroid resistant GvHD were submitted to 80 ECP, 40 paired procedures.Results: All procedures were well tolerated, with no significant differences in procedure duration. CELLEX cell product showed higher granulocytes and platelet content, while Amicus cell product exhibited higher enrichment of lymphocytes, resulting in significantly higher MNC purity (92.9% vs. 84%). A significantly higher granulocytes and platelets absolute content was observed in CELLEX cell products, while Amicus cell products showed a significantly higher number of TNCs and MNCs. Differences in granulocyte and platelet content remained significant even after normalization of the data according to blood volume processed. These findings are confirmed by a statistically significant higher CE2% for CELLEX for granulocytes and platelets along with the lack of significant difference observed for TNCs and MNCs.Discussion: Our analysis shows differences in the characteristics of the procedure and the cell product. Anyway, both devices are effective for performing ECP procedure, as they collect a cell product suitable for photopheresis. At present, our results represent the first data set comparing two available inline ECP devices.","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142795219","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The content has been used as a valuable source of mononuclear cells for research purposes. In frequent, long-term platelet apheresis donors, lymphopenia has been associated with the use of LRS chambers, and implementation of plasma rinseback at the end of the procedure has been shown to mitigate the depletion of lymphocytes. In this report, the cellular content of the LRS chamber and remaining disposable was characterized with and without plasma rinseback.Study design and methods: Trima disposable sets were obtained from apheresis platelet collections in 100% plasma or 35% plasma/65% PAS with or without plasma rinseback at the end of the collections. Cellular content was drained from the LRS chamber and the disposable and was characterized using a hematology analyzer and flow cytometer to establish total cell counts and proportions of RBC, platelet, and WBC subpopulations.Results: LRS chambers contained approximately 109 WBCs, with the majority being lymphocytes and monocytes. The addition of plasma rinseback significantly decreased the number of WBCs remaining in the disposable, thereby increasing the number of WBCs returned to the donor. However, rinseback did not impact the WBC content of the LRS chamber itself.Conclusions: Blood Centers using the Trima Accel instrument may reduce lymphopenia in regular platelet donors by implementing plasma rinseback, while ensuring the cellular content of the LRS chamber intended for research purposes remains unaffected.","PeriodicalId":23266,"journal":{"name":"Transfusion","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142787083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The genotypes of ABO, FUT1, and FUT2 were imputed using the genetic variations discovered in the whole exome sequencing data. Three-dimensional (3D) models of FUT1 variants were built using Deepmind's AlphaFold2 and HDOCK, and the possible effects of the variants were predicted to evaluate using DynaMut2 and Polyphen-2.Results: Serological analysis confirmed the para-Bombay B phenotype producing anti-HI and exhibiting normal genotypes ABO*B.01/O.01.02 and FUT2*01.09/01.09. Remarkably, the phenotype is caused by a compound heterozygous genotype: one allele containing the novel c.-35A>T mutation and the known c.725T>G mutation (p.Leu242Arg) of FUT1, and the other allele containing the c.-35A>T mutation. From the computerized stimulation analysis, p.Arg242 of the FUT1 variant may be detrimental, destabilizing, and probably damaging to 1,2-L-FucT1, although not altering the 3D structure of the entire enzyme. The c.-35A>T promoter DNA left at the binding interface of both ZID and c-Rel transcription factors may enable regulation of 1,2-L-FucT1 function at gene promoters.Conclusion: We identified the two novel variants, c.-35A>T and c.[-35A>T, 725T>G], in the FUT1 causing the para-Bombay phenotype.
