Mirasol® Pathogen Reduction Technology

Built for efficiency and ease of use, the novel Mirasol 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 is:

• An innovative, proactive approach to addressing existing and emerging safety issues
• The only device that uses riboflavin (vitamin B2), a naturally occurring, non-toxic compound, combined with ultraviolet light, to provide effective pathogen reduction and white cell inactivation
• A single platform capable of treating platelets and plasma using the same compound and light delivery system
• Versatile technology that is easy to learn and use

The Mirasol PRT system delivers:

• An extra measure of safety in the face of emerging infectious diseases
• Reduced risk from screened and unscreened pathogens and white blood cells
• An effective alternative to bacterial screening of platelets, with no delay in product release
• Flexibility and ease of use for optimal operational efficiency
• Accurate reporting and traceability through fully integrated data capture
