Abstract
The 24 hr. post-transfusion survival of erythrocytes was determined on 64 samples of blood stored for 6 weeks at 4[degree] C in acid citrate dextrose (ACD) or in ACD plus inosine (ACDI). Erythrocyte post-transfusion survival values of 4 to 33% and 28 to 100% for blood stored in ACD and in ACDI, respectively, were obtained. Inosine had a beneficial effect on the viability of stored blood although there was considerable variability in this effect.Keywords
