Abstract

Abstract. Transfusing of whole blood and blood components has a constant risk factor – a microbial contamination. Because using of contaminated blood products can cause sepsis and high risks to the health of recipients.

Violation of the rules of asepsis during blood donation, during the manufacture of blood products, damage to blood collection systems or their tightness, etc. can lead to microbial contamination.

We examined 5 samples of preserved canine packed red blood cells, which were taken in closed systems, using CPDA anticoagulant and following storage at a temperature of + 2-6 ° C for 30 days. According to the results of bacteriological examination of samples of canine packed red blood cells (pRBC) after their storage, no non-sterile sample was found.

Thereby, the method of blood collection using closed systems with CPDA anticoagulant is reliable and allows to obtain donor blood and blood components without loss of sterility during long-term storage.

Keywords: canine packed red blood cells, microbial contamination, donor blood sterility
