Single Blood Bags - 450 ml

Adult Single bags - For the collection of 450ml +/- 45ml of whole blood with a 16g needle. Each foil pack contains 10 blood collection bags. The shelf life of the whole blood unit is 35 days at 4°C. This ideal for collecting blood from dogs larger than 25kg.

Processing whole blood into packed red blood cells and fresh frozen plasma within 8 - 12 hours of collection preserves its clotting factors. When using this method, the red blood cells can be stored for 4 - 6 weeks at 4°C, while the fresh frozen plasma can be stored for 1 - 2 years at -18°C, ensuring that both components remain usable for extended periods of time. Additionally, processing whole blood into these components prevents the loss of clotting factors and allows for their efficient and timely use.
