Whole blood donors' post-donation symptoms diminish quickly but are discouraging: Results from 6-day symptom diaries.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In transfusion medicine, frozen red blood cells (RBCs) are an alternative for liquid-stored RBCs. Little is known about the rheologic properties (i.e., aggregability and deformability) of thawed RBCs. In this study the rheologic properties of high-glycerol frozen RBCs and postthaw stored in saline-adenine-gl...
