Abstract Title:
[Possibilities of using UV-irradiated blood in the prevention of serum hepatitis after blood transfusions during surgery].
Abstract:
It was shown in 31 samples of donor blood containing HBsAg that independent of the irradiation dose HBsAg was not detected in 66.7% of the photomodified blood when using short wave UV radiation. Long-wave UV radiation provides disappearance of HBsAg in 50%. A conclusion is made on expedience of irradiation of the donor blood with ultraviolet rays before transfusion.
