Improvements in Blood Safety

The INTERCEPT Blood System improves blood safety by helping blood centres to:

  • Prevent transfusion-associated bacterial sepsis
  • Close the window period for known pathogens
  • Be protected from outbreaks of emerging pathogens
  • Prevent transfusion-associated graft versus host disease (TA-GVHD) without gamma irradiation
  • Reduce acute transfusion reactions
