Risk of chikungunya virus transmission associated with European travelers returning from southern Thailand (2008-2015).

abstract：BACKGROUND:Thromboelastography (TEG) is widely used in hospitals but less commonly in blood banks for evaluation of platelet (PLT) concentrates (PCs). A TEG-PC assay for testing fresh or stored PLTs must reflect the quality of the PLTs. The added value could be measurement of donor-dependent PLT quality. STUDY DESIGN ...
