Detection of autologous DEHP-free blood transfusion using a combination of multiple biomarkers in different matrices
Resource description
Project Title: Detection of autologous DEHP-free blood transfusion using a combination of multiple biomarkers in different matrices
Researchers: Dr. N. Leuenberger, Dr. N. Robinson, Dr. Y.O. Schumacher
Institutions: Swiss Laboratory for Doping Analysis, Switzerland
Year approved: 2012
Summary: In this project, we plan to perform clinical study in which volunteers will perform autologous DEHP-free blood transfusion. DEHP-free blood bags will be supplied thank to a laboratory-industry collaboration. Collection of different matrix such as plasma, serum and fingertip prick test samples will be carried out at different time points. In these samples multiple biomarkers such as blood cells, non- transferrin-bound iron (NTBI), total bilirubin, interleukin and circulating microRNAs will be measured and compared in order to detect autologous DEHP-free blood transfusion in recipient.
