What are you measuring about blood or plt suspensions (For QC) pH with compact system, or gor purpose what are you using instruments.

(Measurement of the pH in a closed system is preferable to prevent CO2 escape)

In the modern technology Connect devices ar available. You connect the bag ( either red cell or platelet) to measure bacterial contamination using EBDS system. With this entire process will be in a closed system.

How u validate ur connect device? How often and how u Check that its function is proper.

We measure pH in an open system using an Oakton tabletop pH meter and a 1-mL sample that is dispensed into a test tube. These tests are not performed to detect bacterial contamination. The platelets should have a pH is above 6.2. We instruct our staff to perform the pH as soon as possible...but some unofficial testing has shown us that the pH value is actually stable over several hours.

Heather Vaught! Then what u do to detect bacterial contamination? How u take the sample from platelet bag? Can u guide me on my above question.
