METHOD FOR DETERMINING A PATHOGENIC CONTAMINATION IN A BLOOD PLATELET-CONTAINING FLUID

摘要

The invention relates to a method for determining a pathogenic contamination in a blood platelet-containing fluid consisting in preparing a biological fluid in a preservation pocket (2), in taking two samples of a fluid contained in said preservation pocket (2), in separating the pocket content and the two samples, in determining a bacterial contamination of the first sample at an initial time, when the bacterial contamination of the first sample is negative, in placing the preservation pocket (2) under first storage conditions, in determining the bacterial contamination of the second sample prior to using the biological fluid, and in using said biological fluid if the bacterial contamination of the second sample is negative.
