ISO 3826-3:2006

OVERVIEW

ISO 3826-3:2006 specifies requirements, including performance requirements, for integrated features on plastic, collapsible, non-vented, sterile containers (blood bag systems).

The integrated features refer to:

• leucocyte filter;
• pre-donation sampling device;
• top and bottom bag;
• platelet storage bag;
• needle stick protection device.

In addition to ISO 3826-1:2003, which specifies the requirements of conventional containers, ISO 3826-3:2006 specifies additional requirements for blood bag systems using multiple units.

Unless otherwise specified, all tests specified in ISO 3826-3:2006 apply to the plastic container as prepared ready for use.
