A pint of human blood is worth around $130.00 to $150.00
The adult human body contains 10 to 12 pints of blood.
The average adult has about 4 to 6 liters of blood (9 to 12 US pints) in their body.
The average man has more blood than the average woman, and people who weigh more or are taller than others have more blood.
This means a person can die from losing 2 1/2 to 4 liters of blood.
When you donate blood you usually donate 1 pint of blood and your body then makes more blood pretty quickly.
A blood transfusion bag contains around 300 to 320 ml of blood.
A blood transfusion is the process of transferring blood products into one's circulation intravenously.
