plasma
Blood plasma is serum that hasn't had the clotting factors separated. Like serum, it contains no blood cells.
Plasma is the fluid in your blood stream that actually holds all of the blood cells. It performs an important function in that it is the medium that oxygen and nutrients are supplied to the body.
blood is separated into 2 things. the blood cells, and the plasma. The plasma is about 55 percent of the blood and in that 55 percent, 90 percent of it is water, and other 10 percent is dissolved gases, salts, nutrients, enzymes, hormones, waste products, and proteins called plasma proteins.
In plasmapheresis, antibody-laden blood plasma (the liquid portion of the blood) is removed from the body. Red blood cells are separated and put back into the body with antibody-free plasma or intravenous fluid.
Plasma is the clear portion, there are also platelets, red blood cells, and other clotting factors present in the blood.
It is a mixture!Blood is a mixture of red and white blood cells, platelets, and plasma, which is itself a mixture.
Plasmapheresis is a process in which the plasma is separated from the blood cells. People with autoimmune diseases are sometimes treated with this procedure. The plasma is disposed of and the cells are reintroduced to the body with other fluids.
