- leuco-depleted blood
- blood that has had as many leucocytes removed as possible
- removing these make immune responses less likely
- this is important for patients having repeated transfusions to prevent their lymphocytes from making antibodies to the blood cells in the transfusion (which would make future transfusions difficult
- removing these make immune responses less likely
- blood that has had as many leucocytes removed as possible
- Packed red cells

- PLASMA
- Blood with cells removed
- fresh frozen plasma used during cardiac surgery to reverse anti-coagulant treatment
