IMUGARD WB PLT Platelet Pooling Set
Delivering Leukoreduced Whole Blood Platelets for Storage Up to Seven Days*
Our IMUGARD WB PLT Platelet Pooling Set delivers prestorage pooled and leukoreduced whole blood-derived platelet products for storage up to seven days when used with bacterial detection sets cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Biocompatibility
The filter is made from microporous polyurethane and manufactured in accord with international standards for material biocompatibility.
Controls Leukoreduction
Highly specific pore size and distribution enable consistent, efficient filtration of leukocytes.
Reduces Platelet Loss
The filter’s small priming volume of 17 mL allows you to retain more platelets in your final product.
*When used with FDA-cleared or FDA-approved bacterial detection sets. Additionally, for platelet units stored past 5 days and through 7 days, every pooled platelet product must be tested with a bacterial detection device cleared by FDA and labeled as a “safety measure."
