Implication

Observational analysis reveals that anticoagulant choice affects RBC aggregation stability in blood, highlighting the importance of temperature control.

Key Points

EDTA anticoagulated blood preserved RBC aggregation stability for up to 4 hours at ambient temperature, while lithium heparin showed changes within 1 hour.
RBC deformability became altered after 8 hours of storage regardless of anticoagulant type, emphasizing the effect of storage duration.
Samples stored at 4 °C showed improved stability, especially for EDTA anticoagulated blood, indicating the benefit of cold storage.
Short-term storage of blood greatly impacts its physical properties, suggesting that EDTA is the preferred anticoagulant for preservation.
