Commercial uses of blood products


What are the different components of Blood components??  Such which are  used in clinical practice are 1) whole blood, 2) red blood cells, 3) plasma components, platelets, 4) lymphocytes and 5) granulocytes which are derived
from whole blood or platelet rich plasma.These components are collected from normal donors by phlebotomy or hemapheresis using the technique of
differential centrifugation. Blood components should be distinguished from plasma derivatives which are
fractionated from large volumes of (thousands of litres) plasma in large industrial units e.g. for manufacturing
albumin, intravenous gamma globulin, Factor VIII etc.
