Abstract
|
|
|
Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) were collected for autologous transplantation for the first time in Korea with Fenwal CS-3000 Plus blood cell separator. Twenty-nine procedures were performed for 7 patients without any incidents. GM-CSF (400ug)
was
administered daily for 5 days before PBSC collection and the collections were performed 3-6 successive days. A total of 3.5-11.4×10E9 mononuclear cells (MNCs) were collected from 7,000mL blood processed per procedure. The number of MNCs
collected
was
mainly dependent on the concentration of MNCs in patient's blood (r=0.68, p<0.01). We concluded that the PBSC transplantation program could be set up without difficulty in Korea since the Fenwal CS-3000 Plus blood cell separator is already
available in
many institutions and the procedure used in this study is easy to follow.
