Definitions

  • stored and/or non-stored components typically include undesirable material such as bacteria and/or leukocytes.
  • Bacteria can contaminate the blood or blood component during blood collection and/or storage.
  • One source of bacterial contamination may be the blood donor's skin, which may contain one or more varieties of bacteria, e.g., gram positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus epidermidis. and S ⁇ aureus, and/or gram negative bacteria. Since swabbing the donor's skin (e.g. , with alcohol) prior to venipuncture may be inadequate to assure sterility, the bacteria may pass into the blood collection container, and the bacteria may reproduce while the blood or blood component is stored. Moreover, since some phlebotomy needles may cut a disc of skin when the phlebotomy needle is inserted into the donor, the bacteria-containing skin plug can pass with the blood into the blood collection container, and the bacteria can reproduce during storage.
  • Figure 4B illustrates another embodiment of a biological fluid pooling system that can be used in accordance with the invention.
  • the illustrated system includes a plurality of containers 12, each suitable for holding a biological fluid such as buffy coat, in fluid communication via conduits 160 with a first receiving container 118a for pooled buffy coat.
  • the illustrated system in Figure 4B also includes a filter assembly 26, such as a leukocyte depletion assembly, interposed between the first receiving container 118a and a second receiving container 118a.
  • the system also includes an additional container 20, e.g., for holding an additive or wash solution.
  • pooled biological fluid is then recovered in the receiving or transfer container 118a and, in accordance with the invention, the introduction of air or gas into the receiving container can be minimized, so the biological fluid is recovered without collecting excess air.
  • gas may be introduced behind the biological fluid retained in the system. Using the illustrative system illustrated in Figure 3 for reference, the gas that was initially introduced into the containers 18a through either the gas inlet 80 or the gas outlet 82 will follow the biological fluid as it flows through the conduits. This increases the recovery of the biological fluid, since the gas following the biological fluid "chases" the fluid from the conduits.
