METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING PRECIPITANT IN PURIFIED PLASMA

摘要

PURPOSE:To treat a large amount of plasma continuously in safety by a method wherein a part of purified plasma is extracted continuously to react with a precipitant detection liquid and changes in the transparency thereof is monitored to take a safety measure immediately if any change is found. CONSTITUTION:A part of treated plasma cleared of a precipitant with a plasma component adjustor 8 is extracted in branch with a sampling pump 10 and converged with a precipitant detection solution to react with a reactor 13. Based on the drop in the transparency of the plasma caused by any precipitant left therein, changes in the transparency thereof are detected with a detector comprising a light emitting section 14 and a light receiving section 14' to be outputted to a control section 15. When the precipitate is left so much as to impair a human body, an alarm 16 is actuated to take a safety measure immediately. This enables the monitoring of purified plasma with a relatively handy device thereby treating a large amount of plasma continuously and in safety.
