An observed decline in end‐of‐storage pH in plateletpheresis‐derived platelet concentrates for neonatal use suspended in 100% autologous plasma was expected to be reversed by the addition of a platelet additive solution, (PAS)‐E, increasing unit volume by approximately 20%. This study determined the impact on other in vitro storage parameters to ensure the expected increase in pH did not mask an adverse impact on component quality.
