In this work, we apply the independent component analysis (ICA) on the extraction of artifacts from the electrocardio-graphic (ECG) signals. ECG analysis is not an easy task when artifacts (electrodes, muscle, breathing, etc) corrupts the ECG, hiding important information. If the mixed signals in the ECG recordings (heart signal and artifacts) are statistically independent, the ICA can blindly ...

This report describes the production and characterisation of a freeze-dried preparation of pooled human plasma, containing IgG antibodies against the human platelet antigen l a (HPA-la). Plasma samples containing potent anti-HPA-la were pooled and freeze dried in 1 mL ampoules. In addition, three individual plasma samples were selected which had varying levels of antiHPA-la activity. The anti-H...
