VORRICHTUNG UND VERFAHREN ZUR HERSTELLUNG VON AUS BLUT ODER PLASMA BESTEHENDEN LÖSUNGEN BEKANNTER KONZENTRATION

摘要

An apparatus for separating a blood component, e.g., fibrin monomer, from blood or plasma [comprises] includes a container [(110)] with a reaction chamber for receiving the plasma, where [said] the reaction chamber is defined by an outer wall and [comprises] includes means for supplying [said] the reaction chamber with an agent for converting the fibrinogen content of the plasma into a non-cross-linked fibrin polymer. The apparatus [comprises furthermore] also includes a device for centrifuging the reaction chamber with the plasma and [said] the agent to a degree sufficient for separating the non-cross-linked fibrin polymer from the plasma, for depositing [said] the polymer on the outer wall of the reaction chamber, and for expelling the remaining plasma from the reaction chamber. The container [(110) comprises] includes means for supplying the reaction chamber with a solvent for dissolving [said] the non-cross-linked fibrin polymer. The apparatus [comprises furthermore] also includes a measuring device [(130)] for measuring the amount of the deposit of the non-cross-linked fibrin polymer on the outer wall of the container [(110)], as well as a control unit [(131)] for controlling the addition of solvent in response to [said] the amount of polymer.
