All of the following are true about anticoagulants except:
Whole Blood Anticoagulant used Maximum storage ACD/CPD/CP2D 21 days CPDA-1 (citrate phosphate dextrose adenine) 35 days SAGM (Saline adenine glucose mannitol) 42 days Actions of ingredients of Anticoagulant solution Glucose - ATP generation by glycolysis Adenine -Synthesis of ATP - Increase shelf life of RBC to 42 days Citrate - Prevents coagulation by chelating calcium Sodium diphosphate - Maintain optimum pH
Maximum storage with CPDA-1 is 35 days
Maximum storage with SAGM is 42 days
Sodium diphosphate helps in synthesis of ATP
Citrate Prevents coagulation by chelating calcium
