Donor Iron Deficiency Study - Red Blood Cells From Iron-deficient Donors: Recovery and Storage Quality
Primary Hypothesis The 24-hour post-transfusion RBC recovery of units obtained from donors exhibiting iron-deficient erythropoiesis will not meet FDA standards for clinical use.

Effects of Transfusion of Older Stored Red Cells
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of transfusion of fresh and stored blood on patients. The investigators hope to test: whether a similar effect (older stored blood is associated with worse outcomes) is seen…

Anemia
Transfusion of Biotinylated Red Blood Cells
The purpose of this research is to study how red blood cells (RBCs) survive in a person's circulation, and how that survival may be different in red blood cells that are donated and stored prior to being transfused.

Erythrocyte Transfusion
Rejuvenated RBC and VO2 Max in Healthy Subjects
To compare the physiologic benefits of rejuvenated RBCs (rejRBCs) to standards RBCs (PRBCs), we will emulate critical conditions by safely maximizing stress on the cardiovascular system, in an elective, feasible volunteer study.
