Summary: | The outbreak of the second world war greatly stimulated investigations on the preservation and use of stored blood. Numerous groups of workers attacked this problem and rapidly improved methods of preservation and methods for following the survival of red blood cells after transfusion. By the end of the war these studies had advanced to a point where it was evident that further progress in this field could only be achieved through detailed studies of the enzyme systems, especially those of the formed elements, and of the associated chemical and physical chemical changes taking place during preservation of the blood. |
