Inactivation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in plasma and platelet products using a riboflavin and ultraviolet light-based photochemical treatment.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:Platelet concentrates are frequently transfused to patients with reduced immunity. An exhaustive description of their viral content is needed to prevent unwanted infection. MATERIAL AND METHODS:To track viral sequences, a shotgun metagenomics approach was used on a bank of 300 platelets conce...
