: Peripheral venous blood was donated by healthy volunteers to the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS), National Blood Bank located in St. James’s Hospital, James’s Street, Dublin 8 for transfusion and research purposes. Written informed consent was obtained from all volunteers. The IBTS provides de-identified blood components, pro bono, to academic researchers. Written approval was granted by the IBTS to academic researchers at the UCD Conway Institute to utilise these donated blood components (IBTS approval number: 001-03-19). We confirm that all experimental blood processing protocols were approved by the UCD Conway Institute and performed according to Institute guidelines and in compliance with international laws.
