Metabolomic analysis of platelets during storage: a comparison between apheresis- and buffy coat-derived platelet concentrates

摘要

BackgroundPlatelet concentrates (PCs) can be prepared using three methods: platelet (PLT)-rich plasma, apheresis, and buffy coat. The aim of this study was to obtain a comprehensive data set that describes metabolism of buffy coat-derived PLTs during storage and to compare it with a previously published parallel data set obtained for apheresis-derived PLTs.
