Evaluation of Dried Storage of Platelets for Transfusion: Physiologic Integrity and Hemostatic Functionality

Abstract

The meeting consisted of a review of all project findings to date (1989-present) to evaluate the prospects of commercialization of dried human platelets for transfusion. Data was presented to show the typical yields, retention of platelet integrity and function, and possible in vivo application. The discussion that proceeded was generally very favorable and supported a progression toward GMP/GLP large-scale production of pharmaceutical grade human platelet preparations as a next step. We view this outcome as a validation of our efforts.
