?? Double your impact with a double red donation! ???? Apheresis is a procedure in which blood is drawn from a donor, and specific components, such as red blood cells, are separated and collected. ? The procedure takes about 1.5 hours from registration to post-donation snacks. ?? If you're blood type A-, B-, O+, or O-, you're the perfect match to help patients in need. ? You can donate double red cells every 16 weeks, or 4 months. ?? Visit LStream.org to schedule an appointment. . . . #Lifestream #DonateBlood #DoubleRed #DoubleRedCells #SaveLives

?? Behind the Scenes in the Reference Lab ?? Hospitals send patient samples to our Reference Lab, where Clinical Lab Scientists (CLSs) conduct advanced tests like RBC antibody identification, molecular typing, and compatibility testing, help match blood for patients with special needs (sickle cell or oncology), and perform tasks like fetal bleed quantification and bacterial testing, ?? The Antibody Titer Test measures antibodies in the blood to help ensure transfusion safety by preventing ABO (blood type) incompatibility. If titers for antigens A or B are high, hospitals may avoid transfusions to type A or B patients to reduce the risk of a reaction. . . . #LifeStream #BehindtheScenes #Laboratory #Lab #BloodBank #Lifesavers
