The perfect systems package to improve the supply, safety and the savings of the products you produce. Every day, even with the increased use of apheresis technology, your facility must collect manual whole blood donations to address local blood needs. Deciding how to collect, process and deliver the highest quality blood products utilizing the safest, quickest and most efficient processes can be challenging in the current economic environment. Blood collection systems must be designed to meet these challenges by helping to improve:
- SUPPLY by increasing product availability to give you the flexibility to meet both your customers’ needs and your facility’s growth and/or export targets.
- SAFETY by delivering high quality blood products to give you reliability and confidence in your process that exceeds industry standards and guidelines.
- SAVINGS by streamlining your process and eliminating waste to give you better profitability and improve your bottom-line.
By utilizing the systems in the Leukotrap Synergy Platform, you can maximize the value of these ‘every day’ manual whole blood donations to get the leukoreduced red cells along with the platelets and plasma components you need while increasing your potential to improve your product yields and revenue stream.
1. Universal In-line Red Cell Collection and Processing System
Leukotrap RC System with RC2D Filter
The first system in this platform is the
Leukotrap RC System with RC2D Filter, a universal collection system that provides the flexibility to provide leukoreduced RBCs along with non-leukoreduced plasma or platelet components based on your inventory needs. The Leukotrap RC System with RC2D Filter has been designed to handle hard spun blood that has been held up to 72 hours at 1-6 C. This allows for greater flexibility for component staff scheduling, e.g. units arriving late on Friday can be processed on Monday reducing the need for Saturday filtration staffing. Because of the novel design of the RC2D Filter, processing methods to maximize plasma recovery can be used with less concern for extended filtration times or filter plugging. Increase your platelet availability by taking these non-leukoreduced platelets which can be pooled and leukoreduced using the
Acrodose™ PLus System to make a transfusion-ready, therapeutic dose of platelets that are clinically equivalent to a single donor platelet –
an AcrodoseSM Platelet.

2. Pooling and Storage System for Non-Leukoreduced WB-derived Platelets
Acrodose PLus System
The second system in this platform is the Acrodose PL
us System, which uses the non-leukoreduced platelets created with the Leukotrap RC System with RC2D to produce an Acrodose Platelet, a transfusion-ready, therapeutic dose of platelets that is clinically equivalent to a single donor platelet (in terms of platelet count and quality). It is designed to improve safety, increase availability, and provide your blood center with the opportunity for growth by enabling you to tap into the abundant but often discarded resource of whole-blood derived platelets. An Acrodose Platelet can offer significant cost advantages to your blood center as well as the hospitals you serve.

3. Platelet Bacteria Detection and Data Management
Pall eBDS System and Pall Data
The third system in this platform is the Pall
eBDS along with Pall Data which have been uniquely designed for blood center quality control and cGMP compliance. Pall
eBDS adds to the safety of all your platelets products, whether they are leukoreduced or non-leukoreduced, pooled or apheresis platelets. This complete turnkey system for bacterial detection in platelets minimizes false positives and the resulting product loss with single use, closed system processing. The Pall Data management system tracks and manages all time-critical steps in the platelet process and provides a complete, traceable record from individual donor collection to pooled platelets to
eBDS results.
