OPTICAL SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GRADING PLASMA DURING WHOLE BLOOD SEPARATION

An optical plasma grading system includes a broadband light source configured to emit light having wavelengths in a visible spectrum, an optical spectrometer configured to receive a reflected portion of the emitted light and analyze at least a portion of the received, reflected light to determine a...

Zusammenfassung:An optical plasma grading system includes a broadband light source configured to emit light having wavelengths in a visible spectrum, an optical spectrometer configured to receive a reflected portion of the emitted light and analyze at least a portion of the received, reflected light to determine a main wavelength of the portion of the received reflected light, and a controller operably connected to the optical spectrometer, the controller configured to determine a plasma grade of the plasma based at least upon the main wavelength of the plasma.
