Özet

Our study retrospectively examines the number of granulocytes in the products of donors who donated granulocytes between January 2016 and September 2020 at the Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine Blood Bank. The effects of acid-citrate-dextrose (ACD), trisodium citrate + hydroxyethyl starch (TCC + HES) and ACD + HES combinations used in the apheresis procedure on the granulocyte count of apheresis products were examined. As a result of study, it was seen that the type of anticoagulant combination used during apheresis significantly affected the number of granulocytes collected.
