Hemoglobin function in stored blood. XIX. Inosine maintenance of 2,3-DPG for 35 days in a CPD-adenine preservative. 1977

R B Dawson

This study establishes that 10 mM inosine is a sufficient additive to maintain 2,3-DPG levels in blood for five weeks of storage in CPD-adenine. No previous experiments were done with CPD-adenine (0.25 mM) using a design which would give statistical proof of the optimal concentration of inosine needed for maintenance of normal hemoglobin function (2,3-DPG) for five weeks of blood bank storage.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007288	Inosine	A purine nucleoside that has hypoxanthine linked by the N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is an intermediate in the degradation of purines and purine nucleosides to uric acid and in pathways of purine salvage. It also occurs in the anticodon of certain transfer RNA molecules.

D001793	Blood Preservation	The process by which blood or its components are kept viable outside of the organism from which they are derived (i.e., kept from decay by means of a chemical agent, cooling, or a fluid substitute that mimics the natural state within the organism).
