DR. ROCK:
Solvent detergent treated plasma
is licensed in the United States and Canada. It
is a screened tested pooled plasma product. It
is pooled from 2,500 donors, on average. It is
then treated with a combination of solvents and
detergents with the purpose of inactivating lipid
envelope viruses. It's then recycled off into
200 ml volumes and made available, then, for
transfusion purposes.
