- This BBGuy Podlet is the first in the "Why Do We...?" series. It is a ten minute tutorial on irradiation of blood products and aspects of Transfusion-associated Graft vs. Host Disease (TA-GVHD).

Perfect !!!... wish you were present in clones to teach all these subjects in College .. Wish every professor were like you .. sadly there are NONE like you ... :(
You explain it so well!
It is awesome!! Simple and effective!!!
Thank you, a clinician came to my school today and tried explaining this but slaughtered the explanation and left us all bewildered. This was explained very logically and concisely. I would watch any of your videos again cause it was explained so nice! Thanks a million.
It's very useful to me, thank you!
thanks for the podlet. Wished my MLT program had dived into this more.
This is a very informative video. Thank you for sharing.
thank you. it was indeed useful
greatt video!
I shared your links with a pre-nursing comrade. Thank you for providing great, useful information. We used to leukocyte reduce at bedside with an in line filter and then send them through the warmer which looked like a big white pasta machine. Technology amazes me. It's what I love about health care.
Both leukoreduction and irradiation podlets are great and very interesting but in your attempt to make them short you talk a bit fast Dr.Chaffin,which is a bit difficult for non-native English speakers....Of course this is not a big problem as long as i go through these podlets twice or more!
I did have a question. By what means do the Lymphs become inactive? Is their function inhibited because the radiation denatured vital proteins or was DNA damaged so no new proteins could be produced such as cytokines as well as preventing any proliferation? Or does it just kill the cell?
We believe it is due to damage to the DNA of the T-lymphocytes most likely.

@@bloodbankguy Interesting thanks.
You're wonderful.Really appreciate your help.I have a doubt.Earlier in your ALL PLASMA video you 've mentioned that TA-GVHD is one of the complication of FFP transfusion. Then why it not indicated to irradiate frozen product?
That video is outdated. At this point, we don't believe that FFP transfusion is likely to lead to TA-GVHD at all. Liquid Plasma, which is never frozen, has been reported to cause TA-GVHD, however.
