Types of donations
- Information from the Australian Red Cross Blood Service
THERE are about five litres of blood in the human body and it’s made up of several useful components.
You may be able to donate whole blood, plasma or platelets.
Each type of blood donation is used for different medical treatments, and your blood type determines the best donation for you to make.
For more ways to help others, consider bone marrow or organ donation.
