Blood components intended for intrauterine and exchanged transfusion (e.g. IUT, ET, PR/ET) must be stored
between 2°C and 6°C for no longer than five days prior to use. After concentration and irradiation, the
storage time must be no longer than 24 hours.
If transported or stored without agitation, platelet components must be kept at a controlled temperature
between 20°C and 24°C for a maximum period of 24 hours before use. Under constant agitation platelet
components can be stored up to 5 days.
The impact of transport conditions on the quality of platelet components should be validated by appropriate
quality control tests.
When stored at temperatures below 20°C, platelet components undergo membrane phase transition with
the original discoid structure being converted to a sphere. Storage at temperatures higher than 24°C
increases the risk of bacterial contamination.
