The present invention relates to a system for use in treating a blood product containing a pathogen inactivating agent comprising a biocompatible housing and an adsorbent medium having (1) adsorbent resin particles capable of adsorbing the pathogen inactivating agent, and (2) an inert matrix in which the adsorbent resin particles are immobilized; wherein the immobilized adsorbent particles have a diameter from about 100 µm to about 1200 µm when the system is configured as a batch apparatus, and the immobilized adsorbent particles have a diameter from about 1 µm to about 200 µm when the system is configured as a flow-through apparatus; and wherein said blood product substantially maintains a desired biological activity after treatment with said system.
Psoralen compounds are synthesized which have substitutions on the 4, 4', 5' and 8 positions of the psoralen, which permit enhanced binding to nucleic acid of pathogens. Higher psoralen binding levels and lower mutagenicity are described, resulting in safer, more efficient, and reliable inactivation of pathogens in blood products. The invention contemplates methods for preparing substantially non-mutagenic blood products substantially free of nucleic acid, as well as said blood products as such, using the new psoralens which do not compromise the function of blood products for transfusion.
