Zusammenfassung:	A device and method for separating whole blood includes flowing whole blood to a centrifuge, separating whole blood into blood components within the centrifuge, and flowing separated blood components out of the centrifuge. The device and method include a flow rate stoppage phase executed one or more times during the method. The flow rate stoppage phase includes (i) stopping the flow of whole blood to the centrifuge and stopping the flow of separated blood components out of the centrifuge; (ii) spinning the centrifuge at a selected rate; and (iii) after a selected time ending the flow rate stoppage phase and resuming the flow of whole blood to the centrifuge and the flow of separated blood components out of the centrifuge.
