- Description:
- Red blood cells (RBCs) have various roles that are important in making sure that the body functions properly. They are responsible for delivering oxygen and removing carbon dioxide and other waste gases to and from the body. Studies have shown that storing the blood for extended amounts of time leads to more oxygen entering the blood, causing oxidative stress and also formation of microparticles. Small in size (
