摘要:
The invention relates generally to methods of monitoring and controlling the processing of blood and blood samples, particularly the separation of blood and blood samples into its components. In one aspect, the invention relates to optical methods for measuring two-dimensional distributions of transmitted light intensities, scattered light intensities or both from a separation chamber of a density centrifuge. The method may include performing first and second measurements of an operating condition; analyzing the first and second measurements using a predictive data analysis algorithm; comparing the predicted operating condition to a desired operating condition; and adjusting at least one setting.

A central vacuum system is provided that has a permanently installed vacuum unit, which is preferably installed in a garage of a structure. A flexible hose is attached to a vacuum inlet on the vacuum unit and extends from the vacuum unit into an attic space in a structure. The flexible hose passes into a living space of a structure through a ceiling orifice. A retractor mechanism proximate the ceiling orifice is used to retrieve a length of the flexible hose from the living space and to deliver the flexible hose into the attic space for storage. A vertical hose guide is installed in the attic space. The vertical hose guide has a U-shaped bend on an upper end of the vertical hose guide to receive the flexible hose from the retractor mechanism and to deliver the flexible hose downwards onto a floor of the attic from a height above the floor.
