Plastics collapsible containers for human blood and blood components – Part 3: Blood bag systems with integrated features (ISO 3826-3:2006)

Abstract

 

ISO 3826-3:2006 specifies requirements, including performance requirements, for integrated features on plastic, collapsible, non-vented, sterile containers (blood bag systems).

The integrated features refer to:

  • leucocyte filter;
  • pre-donation sampling device;
  • top and bottom bag;
  • platelet storage bag;
  • needle stick protection device.

In addition to ISO 3826-1:2003, which specifies the requirements of conventional containers, ISO 3826-3:2006 specifies additional requirements for blood bag systems using multiple units.

Unless otherwise specified, all tests specified in ISO 3826-3:2006 apply to the plastic container as prepared ready for use.
