You need a legal certification from authorizing systems. Or, visit a plasma bank and know how they operate.
There are several restrictions that could potentially cause a person to be denied donating plasma. Some of these restrictions are age, high blood pressure, rapid heat rate, drug use, and anemia.
There are two types of plasma donation programs, Healthy, and Disease-state.
If you are healthy, you would search for plasma donation centers in your area who accept healthy plasma donors. Companies like Biolife, Biotest, and Biomat provide such services.
If you are diagnosed with a disease such as Lupus, RA, Hepatitis, Toxoplasmosis, etc, you would contact a research company such as can be found on www.idonateplasma.com to find disease-state plasma donation programs near you.
The process:
Make sure to arrive at the Donation Center 20 minutes before your appointment.
Bring a picture ID, one other form of ID, and your social security number.
Drink extra fluids and eat a light meal a few hours before your appointment. Water and
juices are better than coffee, soda, or other drinks with caffeine.
Bring a good book or a headset with your favorite music.
The Donation Center Staff will:
Ask you some questions about your health and medications.
Take your blood pressure and temperature.
Take a small blood sample to make sure you are not anemic.
Your Donation:
An IV will be started in your arm. Your plasma will be collected using sterile,
disposable equipment. The donation is safe and painless. Your only job is to sit back and relax for 45 minutes to an hour. Refreshments will be served after the donation, and you are on your way.
Some general guidelines for donors:
Not all, but many donation centers have the following guidelines for participation:
• You are between the ages of 18 and 65
• You weigh at least 110 pounds
• You have had no body piercing, tattoos, or permanent make-up, in the past year
You can create plasma by heating matter up to roughly 10,000 degrees. Plasma is a state of matter like a solid, a liquid, or a gas and can be found in many household appliances like a plasma screen television and some light bulbs.
Depends on which Plasma you're talking about.
There are two things commonly called plasma.
For plasma as in physics, see below:
There are several methods for heating plasmas. These include Ohmic
Heating, Neutral Beam Injection, Magnetic Compression,
Radio-Frequency Heating, and Inertial Compression. Each of these is
discussed below.
1: Ohmic Heating
"Since the plasma is an electrical conductor, it is possible to heat
the plasma by passing a current through it; in fact, the current that
generates the poloidal field also heats the plasma. This is called
ohmic (or resistive) heating; it is the same kind of heating that
occurs in an electric light bulb or in an electric heater."
"The heat generated depends on the resistance of the plasma and the
current. But as the temperature of heated plasma rises, the
resistance decreases and the ohmic heating becomes less effective. It
appears that the maximum plasma temperature attainable by ohmic
heating in a tokamak is 20-30 million degrees Celsius. To obtain
still higher temperatures, additional heating methods must be used."
2: Neutral-Beam Injection
"Neutral-beam injection involves the introduction of high-energy
(neutral) atoms into the ohmically -- heated, magnetically --
confined plasma. The atoms are immediately ionized and are trapped by
the magnetic field. The high-energy ions then transfer part of their
energy to the plasma particles in repeated collisions, thus
increasing the plasma temperature."
3: Magnetic Compression
"A gas can be heated by sudden compression. In the same way, the
temperature of a plasma is increased if it is compressed rapidly by
increasing the confining magnetic field. In a tokamak system this
compression is achieved simply by moving the plasma into a region of
higher magnetic field (i.e. radially inward). Since plasma
compression brings the ions closer together, the process has an
additional benefit of facilitating attainment of the required density
for a fusion reactor."
4: Radiofrequency Heating
"In radiofrequency heating, high-frequency waves are generated
by oscillators outside the torus. If the waves have a particular
frequency (or wavelength), their energy can be transferred to the
charged particles in the plasma, which in turn collide with other
plasma particles, thus increasing the temperature of the bulk
plasma."
5: Inertial Compression
This is similar to magnetic compression in that decreasing the gas
volume causes the temperature to rise, but in the inertial approach
the compression is achieved by using laser or particle beams to
heat the outer layer of a target pellet; the outer layer vaporizes
and the pressure that the vaporized layer exerts back on the
core of the pellet accelerates the plasma inward on itself, and
the inertia of the imploding atoms in the pellet allows the pellet
to be compressed (for a very short time), and thus heated.
Plasma is also the watery part of blood. A healthy body makes that by itself, w/o any conscious effort.
It can be separated out as part of blood donations/transfusions.
If you go to your local blood clinic donation bank they will give you a small test and tell you if can donate or not.
You get them cut out by a doctor!
Can you smoke crack and donate plasma
usually once every 5-7 days for ~ 1 pint
can a diabetic donate blood
Plasma, or platelets. You can also donate your time.
It is not recommended for women who are pregnant to donate plasma or blood.
can a diabetic donate blood
No, you should not donate plasma with hpv. This can transmit hpv to those needing plasma-based products. If you are discovered to be donating with hpv or any other std, you will be permanently banned on the National Donor Database, and never allowed to donate blood, plasma, organs, tissue or sperm.
