lph Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Does anyone have a process for prepooling cryo using saline? If so how do you attach the saline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Saikin Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Method depends on if you have a sterile docking device or not. Would this be for transfusion or at a donor center? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christie Loe Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 To the best of my knowledge, there are no commercially available closed-system processes for adding saline during donor center manufacture of pre-pooled cryo as saline is only available for purchase in bags (and maybe vials depending on country). BioPharm would add saline through a 0.2 micron sterilizing grade filter and consider it a closed process but these filters are not commonly used in the component lab. They are typically found in Apheresis equipment disposables where the "fluids" do not come pre-attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
