Acid-citrate-dextrose

Acid Citrate Dextrose Solution (sometimes called Anticoagulant Citrate Dextrose Solution) is a solution of citric acid, sodium citrate and dextrose in water. It is mainly used as an anticoagulant to preserve blood specimens required for tissue typing, it is also used during procedures such as plasmapheresis instead of heparin. Two different solutions (Solution A and B) are defined by the United States Pharmacopeia.

They have the following properties:

Solution A (per 1000 mL)
Total Citrate (as Citric acid, anhydrous (C6H8O7)) 20.59 to 22.75g
Dextrose (C6H12O6*H2O) 23.28g to 25.73g
Sodium (Na) 4.90g to 5.42g
Solution B (per 1000 mL)
Total Citrate (as Citric acid, anhydrous (C6H8O7)) 12.37 to 13.67g
Dextrose (C6H12O6*H2O) 13.96 to 15.44g
Sodium (Na) 2.94 to 3.25g

To make use:

A B
Citric Acid, anhydrous (C6H8O7) 7.3g 4.4
Sodium Citrate, dihydrate 22.0g 13.2
Dextrose, monohydrate (C6H12O6*H2O) 24.5g 14.7
Water for Injection to make 1000 mL 1000 mL
