PBS Program Name:
ARC 19/20 Linkage
Grant Program:
Linkage Projects
Grant Activity:
Improved cryopreservation protocols for long term storage of platelets
Purpose:
The aim of this project is to characterise human blood platelet deterioration during cold storage and cryopreservation, and accelerate the development of improved long-term storage options. The project expects to generate important new knowledge about how platelets deteriorate during storage, and how such deterioration can be minimized. The expected outcomes are improved methods for long term platelet storage. This should benefit blood donation services and hospitals by improving platelet delivery to remote locations, reducing wasted blood and the number of donations required, leading to significant financial savings.
