Built for efficiency and ease of use, the novel Mirasol Pathogen Reduction Technology (PRT) system helps improve the safety of the blood supply by reducing the infectious levels of disease-causing agents in platelets and plasma while still maintaining quality blood components.
The Mirasol PRT System uses a combination of riboflavin (vitamin B2), a non-toxic, naturally occurring compound, and a specific spectrum of ultraviolet (UV) light to inactivate viruses, bacteria, parasites and residual white blood cells that may be present in collected blood products.
