Description

Complex centrifugal separator

The present invention relates to a complex centrifuge, and more particularly, to a complex centrifuge capable of centrifuging the mixture by mixing the centrifuge, heating, and cooling to form a mixture and heating and cooling the separated liquid material.

In general, the centrifuge is a means for separating materials having different specific gravity by using centrifugal force. The centrifugal separator is formed by installing a rotor on a rotating shaft of a motor. The centrifuge rotates at a high speed after inserting a tube containing a liquid material into a bucket provided in the rotor The centrifugal force generated by to separate the material according to the difference in specific gravity.

In particular, when separating blood components, an appropriate centrifugal speed and time are selected using the difference in specific gravity of blood components to be separated, and the optimum conditions are set according to the type of centrifuge used. The principle of selection of centrifugal conditions should be high recovery of components to be separated, low incorporation of other components, and no damage to blood components.

The red blood cell preparation centrifuged whole blood collected in multiple bags to remove most of the plasma, and then adjust the red blood cell volume ratio to about 70% but not more than 80% for viability of red blood cells and proper viscosity during transfusion. Concentrated platelets are separated from the whole blood maintained at 20 ~ 24 ℃ within 8 hours after the blood platelet is suspended in an appropriate amount of plasma. Platelets may be aggregated due to physical stimulation due to centrifugal force, so they may be left at 20 to 24 ° C. for about 1 hour, and then stirred in a platelet stirrer until shipment to ensure good gas exchange.

Fresh frozen plasma is rapidly frozen by separating plasma from whole blood within 8 hours after collection. Fresh sinusoidal plasma 1 year after collection is treated with fractional plasma, and fresh sinusoidal plasma is stored below -18 ℃.

However, in order to prevent the deterioration by storing and storing at the appropriate temperature as described above, a medical refrigerator must be separately installed in a specific place, and in the case of cold blood taken directly from the medical refrigerator, a separate blood warmer is used to adjust the temperature.
