RadTag RTG15 / RTX15 Blood Irradiation Indicator
Colour indicator that verifies blood products have been irradiated within 15–50 Gy, as required by USA and Canada guidelines. Available for gamma (RTG15) and X-ray (RTX15) irradiation.
USA and Canada guidelines require blood to be irradiated at no less than 15 Gy and no more than 50 Gy, while EU, UK and Australia guidelines require no less than 25 Gy and no more than 50 Gy. For the latter range, see RTG25 / RTX25.
- Shows whether blood products were under-irradiated, within the recommended dose range or over-irradiated – not just yes or no
- Read visually against minimum and maximum reference colours
- Separate versions for gamma irradiators (RTG15) and X-ray irradiators (RTX15)
- Developed by researchers at the University of Alberta, Canada
