Today at the San Diego Blood Bank we’ve continued testing ZipThaw for FDA review. 

The ZipThaw medical device successfully thawed frozen plasma product down from -30C all the way to 33.5C in less than 17 minutes. We tested more more than 22 bags of frozen product, and each bag contained varying volumes of product, so we’re able to test ZipThaw and ZipSleeve efficacy in real world conditions. Not every blood bag — of any size — is will be exactly filled fully. Please see photos of the action below:
