Abstract

Techniques for collecting granulocytes for transfusion either to neutropenic patients or to neonates are described. Currently, the best granulocyte concentrates are prepared using continuous-flow centrifugation leukapheresis of steroid-stimulated donors in the presence of pentastarch. Donor reactions are mild and are similar to those expected with automated plateletpheresis.
