Same Day Whole Blood Acquisition Services
At Solomon Park Research Laboratories, as part of our due diligent services, we offer same-day whole blood acquisition and shipping. These blood samples will arrive at the client’s facility on the same day or early the next morning for domestic shipments.
Solomon Park collects and supplies whole blood products for research and development purposes sourced from our extensive database of qualified donors. All of our donors are screened using the same process used for donor screening for human transfusion blood products.
This screening takes place before the whole blood is drawn. We use the FDA-approved viral marker panel testing and screening with a donor history questionnaire. Once the screening is complete, 50mL of whole blood is collected. Once collected, the blood (or component parts) are shipped on refrigerated gels or ambient temperature, as requested by the client.
Why Offer Same Day Whole Blood Services?
Blood products, including fresh whole blood extracted from qualified donors, packed and shipped the same day, form an essential part of many medical science research studies,
Real Customer Experience: The “Fresh Blood” Research Study
Solomon Park Research Labs provided whole blood for a study that was set up to find a definition of the phrase “fresh blood.” This study evaluated the coagulant properties of whole blood samples that were 31 days old.
Samples of same-day fresh whole blood were shipped from our lab and stored under AABB refrigerated conditions. Further, whole blood samples were drawn from the same donors 24 hours and 48 hours later, and then every three days until day 31 after the original samples were drawn.
It is essential to note that the additional samples were all shipped the same day that they were drawn. They were all stored under refrigerated conditions and their properties were tested using the following tests: clucose, lactate, TEG, and platelet function by LTA. These additional samples were compared with the original samples that were stored for 31 days to determine a systematic definition of “fresh whole blood.”
This study was important to determining the boundaries by which whole blood is considered fresh before it must be discarded; thereby, cutting down on wastage.
Do you need fresh whole blood for your research study? Or, are you perhaps a donor wishing to participate in research studies designed to improve human health?
