Frozen Blood Shipping
Abstract
The purpose of the report is to recommend shipping containers and packaging techniques designed to provide optimum protection for frozen blood during long distance shipping. Data presented prescribe packaging techniques that will afford ample protection from temperature fluctuation for frozen blood when properly packed in designated shipping containers. The recommendation relates to shipping containers presently available in the military supply system. Further studies are being made in designing and fabricating special transport boxes with the appropriate packing procedures that will enhance the position of blood banking logistics.
