Container for use when making a multi-layered blood product
A container to be used for preparing a multi-layered blood product by centrifugation comprises a substantially cylindrical body (2) with a closed bottom (3) and a top (4) having a filling opening as well as a filter device (15), which is slidable inside the container (1). The filing opening is closed by means of a penetrable membrane (13), and the filter device (15) comprises a substantially planar mesh (16) and a supporting buoyancy body (18). In addition to this, there are means (35, 36, 39, 40, 42), for releasable fixation of the filter device (15) adjacent to the bottom (3) of the container (1).
A centrifuge comprising a rotor having a rotational axis, at least one receptacle for a blood sample container, controller means for controlling the rotational speed of the rotor, at least one optical transmitter for transmitting an optical signal, at least one optical receiver for registering the amplitude of the optical signal, where the optical signal is configured to pass through the blood sample container where the optical receiver detects the amplitude of the optical signal when it is directed through the blood sample container, where the amplitude of the optical signal reflects the translucency of the blood sample, where the controller means is configured to discontinue the rotational movement of the rotor when the amplitude of the optical signal over time has fulfilled a predefined pattern indicating that at least the fibrin compression phase of the blood sample is started.
The present invention relates to a blood collection unit suitable for accelerated blood coagulation of whole blood for subsequent autologous or allogeneic use. The blood collection unit is characterised in that its inside surface comprises an activation site accelerating coagulation by having a high roughness. Further, the present invention relates to a blood collection unit characterised in that its inside surface comprises an activation site having a high roughness area, and in that the interior of said blood collection unit has been prepared with a pressure of no more than 255 mBar, and preferably a pressure of no more than 130 mBar. Thereby, a blood collection unit rapidly providing coagulated blood products is provided. Said blood products are separated effectively into blood serum and a blood clot absent of additives and contaminants which would make the blood unsuited for certain uses, such as blood testing/analysis, and LeucoPatch®.
