ABSTRACT:
A red blood cell containing composition is presented which has reduced potassium ion leakage after irradiation in a virus photoinactivation process. The irradiated red blood cell containing composition comprises red blood cells, a photosensitizer, and sufficient vitamin E or derivatives thereof to prevent potassium leakage. Preferred photosensitizers are aluminum phthalocyanines, AlPcS.sub.4 or Pc5. A preferred vitamin E derivative is Trolox.
