What are the 4 anticoagulants used in preparing RBCs?

4. CPDA-1(cit-ph-dext-adenine)
What are the storage times of each anticoagulant?
What temp is indicated?
ACD: 21 days
CPD: 21 days
CP2D: 21 days

Why is CPD better than ACD?
2,3-DPG levels lower in 1st week with ACD; they lower in the 2nd week with CPD.
How does CPDA-1 enhance storage?
Adenine drives glycolysis to make more ATP and lengthens RBC survival.
