*

Final TNC and CD34 dose and viability are measured immediately after product processing (performed at our institution) and, in the case of fresh products, immediately prior to delivery to the patient floor for infusion. For cryopreserved products, these are measured after product processing immediately prior to cryopreservation. Upon thaw of cryopreserved products, TNC viability is measured by trypan blue (TB) prior to delivery to patient floor for infusion.
