 Photo taken today. From their website http://www.BioLifePlasma.com - BioLifePlasma.com : 2850 Towne Blvd. Middletown, OH 45044 BioLife Plasma Services is an industry leader in the collection of high quality plasma that is processed into life-saving plasma-based therapies. To participate in a plasmapheresis program, you must meet some general donation criteria, such as: AGE: Minimum 18 years. Maximum 65 years. WEIGHT: At least 110 pounds. Plasma is collected through a process called "plasmapheresis." When you come in to donate, a needle is placed in your vein and your blood is pumped into a specialized spinning device that separates the plasma from the other whole blood components, such as red and white blood cells and platelets. While the plasma is collected, the other blood components are filtered into a reservoir. Once the reservoir is full, your red and white blood cells and platelets are returned to your body. BioLife operates and maintains numerous state-of-the-art plasma collection facilities throughout the United States and Austria. BioLife Plasma Services is part of Baxter Healthcare Corporation, the principal domestic operating subsidiary of Baxter International Inc. (NYSE: BAX). ------------- http://www.johnbeagle.com/" rel="nofollow - John Beagle Middletown USA News of, for and by the people of Middletown, Ohio. |
