ABSTRACT:
A method of assessing whether or not erythrocytes are suitable for transfusion into a recipient comprising (i) assaying a sample of erythrocytes for free choline, and (ii) comparing the level of free choline in the sample with the level of free choline deemed suitable for transfusion therapies; and a kit for use in such a method comprising at least one reagent for assaying the sample, instructions for conducting the assaying of the sample, and guidelines for assessing the suitability of the erythrocytes for transfusion.
