    Snippet: Other pathogens-testing not recommended Pathogens for which testing is recommended met at least three of the following criteria: (1) the pathogen has been documented to cause clinical infection in recipients after blood transmission, (2) the pathogen is capable of causing subclinical infection such that carriers might inadvertently be identified as healthy blood donors, (3) the pathogen can be detected using culture or molecular methods from the .....
    Document: Other pathogens-testing not recommended Pathogens for which testing is recommended met at least three of the following criteria: (1) the pathogen has been documented to cause clinical infection in recipients after blood transmission, (2) the pathogen is capable of causing subclinical infection such that carriers might inadvertently be identified as healthy blood donors, (3) the pathogen can be detected using culture or molecular methods from the blood of an infected animal, and (4) the resultant infection in the recipient has the potential to cause life-threatening illness and be difficult to eliminate with antimicrobial drugs. Using optimal standards (Tables 1 and 2, see below), testing also is recommended for those pathogens that can be experimentally transmitted by blood transfusion, even though clinical illness after transfusion has not been described.
