Bacteria identified in Platelets from Blood product unit by Anaerobe culture
Active
Term Description
One of the most common causes of transfusion-related deaths is bacterial infection due to contaminated blood products. Platelets are affected more than other blood products because the temperature at which platelets are stored (20 to 24 degrees Celsius) allows bacterial growth, whereas storage temperatures of other products, such as packed red blood cells (RBC) that are stored at 1 to 6 degrees Celsius, do not. PMID: 28066700 According to the CDC, approximately 1 in 1,000-3,000 units of platelets is affected. To address this, the AABB standard 5.1.1.1 "Standards for blood Banks and Transfusion Services, 22nd edition" requires accredited institutions to implement procedures for detecting and limiting platelet bacterial contamination. https://www.cdc.gov/bloodsafety/bbp/bacterial-contamination-of-platelets.html

LP14082-9 Bacteria
One of the three domains of life (the others being Eukarya and Archaea), also called Eubacteria. They are unicellular prokaryotic microorganisms which generally possess rigid cell walls and multiply by cell division. They exhibit three principal forms: round or coccal, rodlike or bacillary, and spiral or spirochetal. Bacteria can be classified by their response to oxygen (aerobic, anaerobic, or facultatively anaerobic) and by how they obtain their energy (chemotrophic, i.e. via a chemical reaction or phototrophic, via a light reaction). In addition, chemotrophs obtain their energy from chemicals, lithotrophic from inorganic compounds and organotrophic from organic compounds. Bacteria are also classified by the source carbon that they utilize: heterotrophic, from organic sources or autotrophic, from carbon dioxide. They can also be classified by whether or not they stain (based on the structure of their cell walls) with crystal violet dye: gram-negative or gram-positive.

LP6126-9 Anaerobic culture
An anaerobic culture is a laboratory procedure where a sample of tissue or fluid from a patient is placed in or on growth media (broth, agar) in the presence of carbon dioxide to induce the proliferation of potentially infectious agents (bacteria, fungi, viruses). Microbial growth is documented and the organisms are identified to determine whether or not a pathogen is present.Once a pathogen is identified, specific testing techniques can be used to determine drug susceptibilities for assistance in treatment. https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-microbiology/chapter/culturing-bacteria/
