Bacterial 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 کاملBacterial contamination of platelet concentrates stored at 20 ° C
In a series of important studies Murphy and his colleagues demonstrated that the preparation and storage of platelet-rich plasma and platelet concentrates at 22°C rather than 4°C improved their life span in vivo (Murphy and Gardner, 1969; Murphy, Sayar, and Gardner, 1970). The potential clinical relevance of this finding has been confirmed by Handin and Valeri (1971), and it is likely that this...
متن کاملRapid detection of bacterial contamination of platelet-rich plasma-derived platelet concentrates using flow cytometry.
Flow cytometry can be used to detect bacterial contamination of platelet products. In this study, we investigated whether the incubation of a minimal volume of platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-derived platelet concentrates (PCs) with growth medium improved the analytical sensitivity of flow cytometry. Five bacterial strains (Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus cereus, Klebsiel...
متن کاملEvaluations of Detection Methods of Bacterial Contamination in Platelet Components
Platelet components (PCs) have widespread applications in clinical cases. Since PCs store in room temperature (between 20-24°C), they are susceptible to bacterial contamination. There are varied approaches for identifying bacterial contamination in PCs. These methods categorized into two groups: Firstly, culture based methods and secondly, non-culture based methods. Both of them have a coup...
متن کامل[Bacterial contamination on platelet concentrates: identification, antimicrobial susceptibility profile and transfusion-related sepsis].
INTRODUCTION Bacterial sepsis associated with the transfusion of platelet concentrates (PCs) results in serious clinical implications for patients. Given these implications, certain procedures have been integrated into the preparation and quality control of blood components to reduce the risk of bacterial contamination. This article describes the prevalence of bacterial contamination on transfu...
