At the same time, a high level of blood safety must be guaranteed and different guidelines (GLs) deal with this topic. The aim of this study was to evaluate the appropriateness of different GLs in preventing transfusion-transmissible infections (TTI) in Italian feline blood donors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Blood samples were collected from 31 cats enrolled as blood donors by the owners\u2019 voluntary choice over a period of approximately 1 year.

Results for FIV and FeLV infections were negative using rapid tests, whereas five (16.1%) cats were positive for FCoV antibodies. Four (12.9%) cats were PCR positive for haemoplasma DNA and one (3.2%) for FeLV provirus, the latter being positive only using the most sensitive PCR protocol applied. Other TTI were not detected using PCR.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions and relevance<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Blood safety increases by combining the recommendations of different GLs. To reduce the risk of TTI, sensitive tests are needed and the choice of the best protocol is a critical step in improving blood safety. The cost and time of the screening procedures may be reduced if appropriate tests are selected. To this end, the GLs should include appropriate recruitment protocols and questionnaire-based risk profiles to identify suitable donors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1098612x17727233","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,25]],"date-time":"2017-08-25T07:13:21Z","timestamp":1503645201000},"page":"663-673","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Comparison of three blood transfusion guidelines applied to 31 feline donors to minimise the risk of transfusion-transmissible infections"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Maria Luisa","family":"Marenzoni","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefania","family":"Lauzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Milan, Milan, Italy"},{"name":"Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Milan, Lodi, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arianna","family":"Miglio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Transfusion Unit (EMOVET-UNIPG), Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mauro","family":"Coletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Arbia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Milan, Lodi, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saverio","family":"Paltrinieri","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Milan, Milan, Italy"},{"name":"Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Milan, Lodi, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria Teresa","family":"Antognoni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Transfusion Unit (EMOVET-UNIPG), Department of Veterinary Medicine, University of Perugia, Perugia, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/vcp.12372"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jfms.2006.04.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.ctsap.2004.01.002"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2014\/704836"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
