BLOOD PLASMA SEPARATOR EMPLOYING MICRO CHANNEL AND BLOOD PLASMA SEPARATION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

Provided is a blood plasma separator for separating blood plasma and blood cells from whole blood without an additional complicated structure by passing the whole blood through a micro channel having a predetermined shape to make the whole blood flow turbulently and cause a velocity difference or deflection between flows of the blood plasma and the blood cells of the whole blood, and a blood plasma separation method thereof. The blood plasma separator includes: a body; a micro channel formed in the body to allow blood to pass therethrough; a separation member formed at the micro channel to make flow of blood cells or blood plasma turbulent to separate the blood cells from the blood plasma; an inlet connected to the micro channel and configured to introduce blood into the micro channel; and an outlet connected to the micro channel and configured to discharge blood from the micro channel.
