Difference between Blood plasma and Plasmapheresis

Blood plasma vs. Plasmapheresis

Blood plasma is a yellowish coloured liquid component of blood that normally holds the blood cells in whole blood in suspension; this makes plasma the extracellular matrix of blood cells. Plasmapheresis (from the Greek πλάσμα—plasma, something molded, and ἀφαίρεσις—aphairesis, taking away) is the removal, treatment, and return or exchange of blood plasma or components thereof from and to the blood circulation.

Similarities between Blood plasma and Plasmapheresis

Blood plasma and Plasmapheresis have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Anticoagulant, Apheresis, Blood donation, Blood fractionation, Blood plasma fractionation, Blood pressure, Blood product, Blood transfusion, Fresh frozen plasma, Protein.

Anticoagulant

Anticoagulants, commonly referred to as blood thinners, are chemical substances that prevent or reduce coagulation of blood, prolonging the clotting time.

Apheresis

Apheresis (ἀφαίρεσις (aphairesis, "a taking away")) is a medical technology in which the blood of a person is passed through an apparatus that separates out one particular constituent and returns the remainder to the circulation.The blood is filtered to remove the stem cells.

Blood donation

A blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily has blood drawn and used for transfusions and/or made into biopharmaceutical medications by a process called fractionation (separation of whole-blood components).

Blood fractionation

Blood fractionation is the process of fractionating whole blood, or separating it into its component parts.

Blood plasma fractionation

Blood plasma fractionation refers to the general processes of separating the various components of blood plasma, which in turn is a component of blood obtained through blood fractionation.
