Summary

Primary Hypothesis * The 24-hour post-transfusion RBC recovery of units obtained from donors exhibiting iron-deficient erythropoiesis will not meet FDA standards for clinical use. * The 24-hour post-transfusion RBC recovery of units obtained after intravenous iron repletion will improve significantly and will meet FDA standards for clinical use.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • 18-75 years old;
  • healthy (by self report);
  • body weight >110 lbs;
  • female hematocrit >=38%, male hematocrit >39%;
  • frequent blood donor (men ≥2 and female ≥1 RBC unit donations in past year);
  • ferritin =60 µmol/mol heme.

Exclusion Criteria

  • ineligible for donation based on the New York Blood Center donor autologous questionnaire;
  • taking iron supplementation;
  • C-reactive protein >10 mg/L;
  • sickle cell trait;
  • systolic blood pressure >180 or 100 or 100;
  • temperature >99.5°F prior to donation;
  • temperature >100.4°F or subjective feeling of illness prior to 51-Chromium 24-hour RBC recovery study (to avoid the subject having a concurrent illness that may affect post-transfusion recovery);
  • positive results on standard blood donor infectious disease testing;
  • pregnancy;
  • taking, or planning to take, iron supplements; and
  • history of severe asthma requiring hospitalization, allergic eczema (atopic dermatitis), or other atopic allergy causing anaphylaxis.
