Immediately before and immediately after the viral inactivation procedure each CP unit underwent a plaque reduction neutralization test (PRNT), as described elsewhere [5] , Impact of pathogen-reduction technologies on COVID-19 convalescent plasma potency Amotosalen and ultraviolet A light treatment efficiently inactivates severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in human plasma Preservation of neutralizing antibody function in COVID-19 convalescent plasma treated using a riboflavin and ultraviolet light-based pathogen reduction technology Impact of pathogen reduction methods on immunological properties of the COVID-19 convalescent plasma Covid-Plasma Task Force.
