The Effect of Methylene Blue in Combination with Red Visible Light on Model Viruses Inactivation and Coagulation Factors in Fresh Frozen Plasma

Background and Aims: Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP) is one of blood components. The risk of transmission of viruses from blood components regardless selection of blood donors and screening donated blood still remains. There are several methods for viral inactivation. In this study methylene blue (MB) photo inactivation process was used for inactivating viruses. Materials and Methods: In this study M...

Implementation of Plasma Fractionation in Biological Medicines Production

Context:  The major motivation for the preparation of the plasma derived biological medicine was the treatment of casualties from the Second World War.  Due to the high expenses for preparation of plasma derived products, achievement of self-sufficiency in human plasma biotechnological industry is an important goal for developing countries.Evidence Acquisition:  The complexity of the bloo...

In Vitro and in Vivo studies of the Effects of Cold Argon Plasma on Decreasing the Coagulation Time

Introduction Cold plasma is a self-sterilized, painless, and non-contact method in surgeries. These properties allow it to be applied to the living tissues and heat-sensitive parts. The aim of this study was to design a new cold plasma producer device and evaluate the effects of cold argon plasma on decreasing the coagulation time of blood drop in vitro and that of the injured liver blood in vi...
