Small Pool versus Large Pool in Plasma Fractionation: Reevaluation of a Concept

  • Chapter
Plasma Fractionation and Blood Transfusion

Part of the book series: Developments in Hematology and Immunology ((DIHI,volume 13))

Abstract

The concept of pool size originates from the early days of plasma fractionation, driven by the rapidly increasing demands for plasma protein fractions. The developments in plasma fractionation technology have taken place much more dynamically as compared to the technical developments in routine bloodbanking. Pharmaceutical industries have pushed these developments to a level at which plasma fractionation could become an independant profession, operating in a highly efficient, scientific, technical and economical way through national or international organisations.
