From: Shipping blood to a central laboratory in multicenter clinical trials: effect of ambient temperature on specimen temperature, and effects of temperature on mononuclear cell yield, viability and immunologic function

Figure 2

The recovery of cells after Ficoll separation increased as shipping temperature increased. (A) Correlation of the ratio cell yield with minimum temperature during transport; p = 0.001. (B) Correlation of the ratio cell yield with maximum temperature during transport; p = 0.04. (C) Correlation of the ratio cell yield as a function of maximum temperature deviation from room temperature (22°C) during shipment; p < 0.001
