Fresh packed erythrocytes (FRBCs) or stored packed erythrocytes (SRBCs) were either exposed to 300 ppm NO in 90% nitrogen (N2)/10% O2 or to 90% N2/10% O2 (without NO) and the lifespan of circulating biotinylated erythrocytes was measured for up to 7 days. *Values of SRBC + NO differ from SRBC + 10% O2, Bonferroni-adjusted P values: 15 min: P = 0.002; 30 min: P = 0.003; 60 min: P = 0.002; 24 h: P = 0.046. Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation throughout. RBC = packed erythrocytes.
