Abstract
Major advances in platelet concentrate production and storage have ensured the ready availability of this transfusion product. The storage procedures required to achieve a quality product are determined by monitoring selected in vitro measurements together with the incremental response, survival, and function of the platelets following their transfusion into either normal volunteers or aplastic thrombocytopenic recipients.
Supported by NHLBI Grant HL 33375. A portion of this work was also conducted through the Clincal Research Center, University of Washington which is supported by NIH Grant RR-37
