    摘要: Light arrays for use in systems for separating and irradiating blood are disclosed. In accordance with the present invention, the light array has one or more bulbs with electrical connecting leads and first and second support members connected to the bulbs. The second support member preferably includes a connector for receiving the electrical leads. The support members preferably define an end surface and an interior surface, wherein the support members are disposed adjacent the bulbs so the end surfaces are opposed to define a channel, providing a space where tubing carrying blood or other fluids can be disposed without interfering with the array. The bulbs are most preferably attached to the support members using flexible self-locking straps, and in embodiments using two or more bulbs, the bulbs are also preferably held together by one or more straps. Improved mounting systems for connecting the array to the instrument by one or more spring mounts are also disclosed. In certain preferred embodiments, one of the support members is a circuit board and includes a microcircuit for controlling the operation of the array using a clock/timer circuit for determining a total time of activation for the array, whereby upon reaching a predetermined value of the total time of activation, the clock/timer circuit disables the light array. Thus, methods of controlling the output of an array of bulbs are also disclosed.

    摘要: A multicomponent fluid separation and irradiation system is described containing a centrifuge drum and a source of radiant energy located within the drum. In a first embodiment a disposable rigid separation/irradiation chamber is provided with a cylindrical outer compartment located within the drum and opposing the radiant energy source. Whole blood is supplied to the chamber through a dynamic seal located at the center of the chamber. As the chamber is rotated, blood is separated so that energy from the source passes through the inner wall of the chamber and the separated plasma layer to irradiate the buffy coat layer. In a second embodiment, one or both of the walls of the outer compartment of the chamber are flexible so that the chamber will expand as blood is pumped in and will collapse as blood is pumped out.

    摘要: A support material is fed through mating elements which emboss transverse score lines thereon to form an accordion fold in the material. A single thickness of the folded support material is then interleaved with a permeable membrane and sealed in a housing to form a compact inexpensive flat plate dialyzer. Longitudinal channels are formed in the support material which materially improve distribution of fluids within the dialyzer.

    摘要: An apparatus controls movement of fluids during an extracorporeal blood treatment session. A hollow cassette enclosure has a plurality of fluid input ports for receiving fluids into the enclosure and a plurality of fluid output ports for expelling fluids from the enclosure. Internal fluid passageways disposed within the hollow enclosure are provided for coupling together the fluid input ports, and the fluid output ports. At least one internal valve is disposed within the hollow enclosure for controlling movement of the fluid within the hollow enclosure. A filter is integrated into the cassette to filter the blood passing therethrough.

    摘要: Apparatus for treating human blood by irradiation. Exposure of a human blood product sample can be optimized by displacing a contiguous, self-contained arrangement, such as a bag member, while radiation is being emitted towards the contiguous, self-contained arrangement, and by maintaining a substantially constant distance between the radiation source and the at least one blood product held in the contiguous, self-contained arrangement. Also proposed is an arrangement in which at least a portion of the radiation source is displaced while radiation is being emitted towards the contiguous, self-contained arrangements holding the blood products in question. Further, an arrangement for cooling the radiation source is contemplated.

    摘要: An improved apparatus for automatically retaining a removable chamber during operation, in a system for separating and irradiating multi-component fluids. A clamp arm that having two ends is provided: the first acts as a securing means, the second contains the clamp arm center of mass. The clamp arm is pivoted on the rotating chuck near the interface of the rotating chuck interior and the removable chamber exterior. The pivot allows for rotation of the clamp arm about the pivot, the pivot being located between the first end with the securing means and the second end containing the center of mass. When the chuck is rotating, the end of the clamp arm containing the center of mass rotates outward, causing the clamp arm securing means to pivot above the removable chamber thereby securing it in place.
