Inactivation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in plasma and platelet products using a riboflavin and ultraviolet light‐based photochemical treatment 2020-05-14 .txt text/plain 3457 173 52 title: Inactivation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in plasma and platelet products using a riboflavin and ultraviolet light‐based photochemical treatment CONCLUSION: Riboflavin and UV light effectively reduced the titre of SARS‐CoV‐2 in both plasma and platelet products to below the limit of detection in tissue culture. The author of MERS-CoV study also indicated that they were not able to recover infectious virus from those patient samples using cell culture, suggesting that transfusion transmission is a low risk [15] . As with the plasma study, the virus titre was reduced to the limit of detection (≤0Á25 log PFU/ml) in all three donor platelet units. Riboflavin and UV light effectively reduced the titre of SARS-CoV-2 in both human platelet and plasma products to below the limit of detection using an in vitro plaque assay.
