Abstract:
:Red cell concentrates (RCC) are stored for 35 to 42 days in plastic containers manufactured with the liquid plasticizer di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP). DEHP leaches from the polyvinylchloride (PVC) plastic bag, then binds to and stabilizes the RC membrane. This study was undertaken to determine the deformability of the RC membrane using an osmotic gradient ektacytometer and to relate these measurements to the concentration of DEHP in the stored RCC. Pooled RCC was aliquoted into PL146 (PVC), PL732 (polyolefin), and PL732 (with added DEHP) bags with samples removed weekly for analysis of osmotic fragility, deformability, and DEHP concentration. The adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content was also measured. The increase in osmotic fragility during storage was greater when RCC was stored without DEHP. In addition, there was a decrease in the maximum elongation index (El max) when there was decreased DEHP in the storage bag. The osmolarity (Omax) at which El max occurred, as well as the Omin, the osmolarity at which minimum elongation (El min) occurred was higher in the PL732 container than in the PL146 or in the PL732 to which DEHP had been added. These changes could be reversed by addition of DEHP at the beginning of the storage period, showing a direct correlation between DEHP concentration during storage and RC membrane flexibility. By a better understanding of the mechanism of DEHP protection, it might be possible to substitute a less toxic stabilizing compound.
