    摘要: A system and method of separation of therapeutic components from blood. The system includes a dual member centrifuge and a disposable single use fluid transfer set. The set includes an elongated flexible separation chamber having an input port, a separated component output port and a residual fluid output port. The input port and the separated component output ports are located at opposite ends of the elongated separation chamber. The centrifuge includes a receiving chamber with a selectively formed annular slot therein. The separation chamber is positioned in the annularly shaped slot and rotated at a predetermined rotational velocity. Fluids such as whole blood flows through the separation chamber and are separated into various therapeutic components such as platelet rich plasma and residual concentrated red blood cells. Platelet rich plasma can be drawn off as the separated therapeutic component. An alternate two part transfer set provides for highly efficient platelet pheresis. The platelet rich plasma is separated from the residual red blood cells in a first part. The platelet rich plasma flows into the second part and is separated into platelet poor plasma and platelets. The platelet poor plasma can be drawn off and returned to a donor or collected. The platelet concentrate can then be accumulated in a separate container.

    摘要: Systems and methods rotate a chamber, in which whole blood is centrifugally separated into packed red blood cells, a plasma constituent, and an interface between the packed red blood cells and the plasma constituent. The interface carries platelets and mononuclear cells. The systems and methods include an interface control unit. The interface control unit is operative in a first state to enable removal of platelet-poor plasma in a first container for use as a diluting liquid. In a second state, the interface control unit retains mononuclear cells in the chamber, while removing platelet-rich plasma from the chamber, bypassing the platelet-poor collection container, thereby maintaining its platelet-poor character. In a third state, the interface control unit enables the removal of mononuclear cells from the chamber in a path that leads to a second container, where the mononuclear cells are collected. The systems and methods direct platelet-poor plasma from the first container to the second container to dilute the removed mononuclear cells in the second container.

    摘要: Systems and methods for separating platelets from blood derive the yield of platelets in real time as processing is accomplished. The systems and method determine an incremental blood volume processed during a succession of incremental time periods during the separation step. The systems and methods also estimate a separation efficiency for the separation device during each incremental time period, while also estimating a current count of platelets available from the donor during each incremental time period. The systems and methods multiply the determined incremental blood volume for each incremental time period by the estimated current count of platelets for each incremental time period by the estimated separation efficiency for each incremental time period, to derive an incremental platelet yield for each incremental time period. The systems and methods sum the incremental platelet yields over the succession of incremental time periods to obtain the derived yield of platelets. In this way, the systems and methods take into account the dynamic systemic and physiological changes that occur virtually continuously throughout the blood collection and separation process.

    摘要: The invention provides dual-skinned membranes useful as one way or rectifying membranes which reduce back filtration of solute molecules in dialysis and which improve nutrient supply and product recovery in membrane bioreactors. The membranes are dual-skinned polymeric materials preferably in the form of hollow fibers. The membranes have skins of polymer on the opposite sides with differing permeability to solutes and sieving coefficient characteristics. The skin on each side have pores that are invisible at 10,000 times magnification, the microporous structure between said skins contains pores capable of retaining solutes in a molecular weight range of about 5000 to 200000 in an increased concentration between the interior and the exterior skins. Improved dialysis devices are formed by using bundles of the hollow fiber membranes as a dialysis means having rectifying properties.

    摘要: A centrifuge provides simplify access to the processing chamber. In one arrangement, the processing chamber separates into a bowl and spool element to receive a disposable processing bag. In another arrangement, the processing chamber pivots between an operating position and an access position to provide improved access. The centrifuge also employs readily accessible holders for releasably retaining tubing that, in use, conveys fluid to and from the chamber. Though greatly accessible, the centrifuge operates without the need of complicated rotating seals and expensive disposable components.
