The Effects of Ultraviolet Light and Riboflavin on Inactivation of Viruses and the Quality of Platelet Concentrates at Laboratory Scale
BACKGROUND This study investigated the effects of Riboflavin (RB) combined with different doses of UV on Platelet Concentrate (PC) which was infected by three models of virus. Platelet quality after treatment was also assessed. METHODS Three models of virus used in this study were Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV), Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV), and Polio virus, which were added to PC. After phot...
متن کاملBacterial contamination of platelet concentrates: pathogen detection and inactivation methods
Whereas the reduction of transfusion related viral transmission has been a priority during the last decade, bacterial infection transmitted by transfusion still remains associated to a high morbidity and mortality, and constitutes the most frequent infectious risk of transfusion. This problem especially concerns platelet concentrates because of their favorable bacterial growth conditions. This ...
متن کاملEconomics of pathogen inactivation technology for platelet concentrates in Japan.
Residual risk of transmitting recognized and emerging blood-borne pathogens via blood transfusion in Japan persists despite advances in blood safety screening. The INTERCEPT Blood System (IBS) for platelets was developed to inactivate a broad spectrum of pathogens to reduce the risk of transfusion-transmitted infections. In this study we assessed the economic impact of the IBS on platelet trans...
متن کاملinactivation of model viruses and bacteria in human fresh frozen plasma using riboflavin and long wave ultraviolet rays
background and objectives: pathogen reduction technologies are among methods to eliminate transfusion transmitted infections. mirasol method using riboflavin in combination with ultraviolet rays is one of them. the aims of this study were to investigate the effectiveness of mirasol method to inactivate some model pathogens as well as examination of the sensitivity of plasma proteins after treat...
متن کاملUVC Irradiation for Pathogen Reduction of Platelet Concentrates and Plasma.
Besides the current efforts devoted to microbial risk reduction, pathogen inactivation technologies promise reduction of the residual risk of known and emerging infectious agents. A novel pathogen reduction process for platelets, the THERAFLEX UV-Platelets system, has been developed and is under clinical evaluation for its efficacy and safety. In addition, proof of principle has been shown for ...
