Description of Services

Depending on your needs, we can collect tubes or whole units of blood from individuals selected by the researcher or recruited by the Stanford Blood Center based on special criteria (e.g. HLA type, CMVsero status, red cell antigen, etc.).

We can provide anything from leukocytes (buffy coat from whole blood, residual leukocytes), plasma (frozen or liquid), platelets, red blood cells, to whole blood. We can also customize your products with irradiation, leukoreduction, or other product manipulation, or by modifying the collection procedure to fit your needs.
