Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of N-hydroxysuccinimide-biotin labeling in tracking equine red blood cells (RBCs) and their survival after being transfused following varying storage periods.
- A total of 13 thoroughbred horses were involved; in vivo experiments categorized them into four groups based on how long their blood was stored, with a focus on tracking the RBCs' lifespan post-transfusion.
- Findings revealed that proper biotin labeling allows for successful tracking of RBCs, and the post-transfusion lifespan of these autologous RBCs was longer than earlier studies indicated, showing significant survival even after extended storage.
