<prompt> Why is citrate phosphate dextrose CPD is better than acid citrate dextrose ACD for storage of blood?Because it is less acidicImproves oxygen transpoHypeonicity of bloodMore citrate ions  <response>: Citrate dextrose phosphate adenine CDPA-1 helps in improving ATP synthesis during storage, thus increasing the shelf-life of storage up to35 days. Disadvantage of CDPA-1:Increases uric acid stone formation. Citrate phosphate dextroseImproves oxygen transpo Shelf life of the blood after adding above chemicals: - Acid citrate dextrose - 21 days Citrate phosphate Dextrose - 21 days Citrate phosphate Dextrose Adenine - 35 days Saline Adenine Glucose Mannitol - 42 days.
