Refrigeration, or cold‐storage, of platelets may be beneficial to extend the limited shelf‐life of conventionally stored platelets and support transfusion protocols in rural and military areas. The aim of this study was to compare the morphologic, metabolic, and functional aspects of apheresis platelets stored at room‐temperature (RT) or cold conditions, in either plasma or supplemented with platelet additive solution (PAS).
