Component Section
The Component Transfusion Section of Nanjing Red Cross Blood Center was established in 1990, and has developed from separating a single plasma to supplying more than ten blood component products to clinics. The varieties and quantities of the products have been increasing year by year, and the application of clinical blood components has exceeded 99%, which is a precedent for blood transfusion in the country. At the same time, the Component Division also plays its own advantages to cooperate with hospitals at all levels in Nanjing to carry out the clinical application of blood component transfusion for the treatment of various blood diseases and autoimmune diseases. While focusing on the quality and quantity of products, the Component Division is also very concerned about the development of scientific research, and since the establishment of the Division, there are three scientific research projects that have won the first place in the country. (1) It is the first one to carry out the preparation of platelet concentrate with new technology in China, which increases the platelet recovery rate by 15% on average, and the purity of platelet products is high, and there is no need for cross-matching before transfusion, thus eliminating many complicated experiments before the clinical use of platelets. The new technology was recommended by Ruan Changgeng, an academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and won the Fourth Prize of Jiangsu Provincial Scientific and Technological Progress, the Third Prize of Nanjing Municipal Scientific and Technological Progress, and more than ten blood stations in the country sent their staffs for further training and exchanges; (2) firstly, the introduction of a new generation of red blood cell preservation liquid in China, which extended the preservation period of red blood cells from 21 days to 35 days, saving the valuable blood resources. The developer of this preservation solution, Zou Yuanguo, was awarded the 1993 Nanjing Science and Technology Meritorious Person with Outstanding Contributions, and the municipal government rewarded him with 100,000 yuan; (3) he was the first one to develop leukocyte filters in the country, and he successfully transferred the technology as a commercial product to the production enterprises. The technology has been identified by the Nanjing Municipal Government as high-tech successfully transformed into industry, the technology inventor Zou Yuanguo won the National May Day Labor Medal, won the National Model Worker. The blood products supplied at this stage are: 1 red blood cell suspension; 2 fresh frozen plasma; 3 virus-inactivated plasma; 4 cold precipitates; 5 washed red blood cells; 6 washed and thawed long term preservation of rare red blood cells so-called panda blood.
