    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Animal Science
    • Biotechnology

    Background:

    • Equine plasma is a critical biological product in veterinary medicine.
    • Standardized procedures for equine plasma handling are essential for clinical applications.
    • Previous methods may lack efficiency or standardization for collection, preparation, and storage.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To establish a comprehensive and reproducible procedure for equine plasma.
    • To detail the steps for collection, preparation, storage, and administration of equine plasma.
    • To ensure a reliable supply of equine plasma for therapeutic use.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a technique involving exsanguination of anesthetized donor horses.
    • Utilized carotid artery catheterization with a large-bore cannula for blood collection.
    • Collected blood into plastic bags, allowed gravity settling, then transferred to storage bags and froze for later use.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully established a detailed protocol for equine plasma handling.
    • The procedure covers all stages from collection to administration.
    • Frozen equine plasma can be quickly thawed and utilized when required.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed procedure provides a standardized method for equine plasma management.
    • This technique facilitates the efficient collection, preparation, and storage of equine plasma.
    • The protocol ensures equine plasma is accessible for timely administration in clinical settings.
