Fresh Leukopak Stability Study
Retaining fresh leukopak stability from collection through shipment and processing is critical to achieving optimal results for cell and gene therapies. However, shipping delays and unexpected excursions from ideal storage temperature can impact the health, viability, functionality, and downstream performance of the different mononuclear cell (PBMCs) populations in a leukopak when developing a cell therapy. Thus, there has been a great interest in determining how to best safeguard fresh leukopak stability during transit and storage.
Our white paper provides insightful data comparing stability of the different PBMC populations (T cells, NK cells, B cells and monocytes) in fresh leukopaks when stored at either 4°C or room temperature (RT) over a 72-hour period. In addition, a comparison of WBC viability and recovery between fresh and cryopreserved leukopaks is also provided.
