RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Increasing the number of collections of whole blood-derived platelets (WBDP) and lengthening the allowable storage time may alleviate platelet (PLT) shortages. There is a need for new PLT pooling sets that can provide acceptable quality on Day 7 of storage. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This pool-and-split study compared WBDP prepared using the platelet-rich plasma method with the novel IMUGARD WB PLT pooling set and a control pooling set. After pooling and filtration, PLT products were tested on Days 1, 5, and 7. Large volume delayed sampling (LVDS) cultures were taken on Day 2. RESULTS: The median postfiltration residual white blood cell (rWBC) content was 0.18 million per product (maximum 1.26 million; n = 69) with mean PLT recovery of 88.5 ± 2.8% for the new set and median 0.23 million (maximum 1.83 million) rWBC with 87.5 ± 2.5% recovery for the control. Day 5 mean pH22°C were 7.18 ± 0.12 and 7.13 ± 0.10 for the new and control set, respectively. Day 5 in vitro quality parameters were within 20% between the two pooling sets. The new set Day 7 pH22°C was acceptable (7.07 ± 0.17, 100% ≥ 6.3), and most parameters were within 20% of Day 5 values. CONCLUSION: WBDP quality for the new pooling set is acceptable across a battery of in vitro tests when stored up to 7 days and meets FDA regulatory criteria. The quality parameters were similar between the new pooling set and the control set on Day 5. This new set is compatible with LVDS.

RESUMO

We report a simple and versatile technique for oriented assembly of gold nanorods on aligned single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) macrostructures, such as thin nanotube films and nanotube fibers. The deposition and assembly is accomplished via drop drying of dilute gold nanorod suspensions on SWNT macrostructures under ambient conditions. Guided by anisotropic interactions, gold nanorods, and polygonal platelets spontaneously align with SWNTs, resulting in macroscopic arrays of locally ordered nanorods supported on aligned SWNT substrates. SEM reveals that the scalar order parameter of rods relative to the local average SWNT alignment is 0.7 for rods on SWNT films and 0.9 for rods on SWNT fibers. This self-alignment is enabled by anisotropic gold nanoparticle-SWNT interactions and is observed for a wide range of nanoparticles, including nanorods with aspect ratios ranging from 2-35, thin gold triangular and other polygonal platelets. The plasmonic properties of aligned gold nanorods together with superior electronic, chemical and mechanical properties of SWNTs make these hybrid nanocomposites valuable for the design of self-assembled multifunctional optoelectronic materials and optical metamaterials.
