  2. Blood fractionation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_fractionation

    Blood fractionation is the process of fractionating whole blood, or separating it into its component parts. This is typically done by centrifuging the blood. The resulting components are: a clear solution of blood plasma in the upper phase (which can be separated into its own fractions, see Blood plasma fractionation),

  3. Buffy coat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffy_coat

    The blood is taken in a QBC capillary tube which is coated with acridine orange (a fluorescent dye) and centrifuged; the fluorescing parasitized erythrocytes get concentrated in a layer which can then be observed by fluorescence microscopy, [7] under ultraviolet radiation at the interface between erythrocytes and buffy coat.

  4. Centrifuge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifuge

    Whole blood is often separated, using a centrifuge, into components for storage and transport. An application in laboratories is blood separation. Blood separates into cells and proteins (RBC, WBC, platelets, etc.) and serum. DNA preparation is another common application for pharmacogenetics and clinical diagnosis. DNA samples are purified and ...

  5. Apheresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apheresis

    The Baxter company manufactured blood bags without DEHP, but there was little demand for the product in the marketplace "Mean DEHP doses for both plateletpheresis techniques (18.1 and 32.3 μg/kg/day) were close to or exceeded the reference dose (RfD) of the US EPA and tolerable daily intake (TDI) value of the EU on the day of the apheresis.

  6. Centrifugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugation

    Laboratory centrifuge. Centrifugation is a mechanical process which involves the use of the centrifugal force to separate particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, medium viscosity and rotor speed. [1]

  7. Whole blood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_blood

    The collected blood is generally separated into components by one of three methods. A centrifuge can be used in a "hard spin" which separates whole blood into plasma and red cells or a "soft spin" which separates it into plasma, buffy coat (used to make platelets), and red blood cells.

  8. After blood is drawn from the patient, it is spun down in a centrifuge, PRP is separated, ... PRP is an autologous procedure, says Dr. Lal, “meaning YOUR blood is applied to your skin.” He ...

  9. Plasmapheresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmapheresis

    Typically, a 300 ml batch of blood is removed at a time and centrifuged to separate plasma from blood cells. Continuous flow centrifugation: Two venous lines are used. This method requires slightly less blood volume out of the body at any one time, as it is able to continuously spin out plasma. Plasma filtration: Two venous lines are used.
