At iProcess Global Research, we recognize the indispensable value of plasma in medical research. The largest component of human blood, plasma is a clear, straw-colored liquid that’s vital for transporting nutrients, hormones, and proteins to parts of the body that need them. Our focus on providing high-quality plasma samples stems from its significant role in advancing scientific understanding and developing new medical treatments.
Why Is Plasma Essential?
Plasma is collected in whole blood cells through centrifugation with anticoagulants, such as EDTA, heparin, or citrate, added to the glass tubes to prevent clotting. These coagulation factors are also often called clotting factors during the sample preparation process.
Plasma is more than just a transport medium. These platelets contain an array of essential substances, including electrolytes, nutrients, hormones, enzymes, antibodies, gases, and proteins like albumin and fibrinogen.
This composition makes it a crucial element for research in various fields, such as immunology, hematology, and genetic disorders.
How Is Plasma Useful in Medical Research?
The versatility of plasma makes it an invaluable resource in a broad spectrum of research applications, such as:
- Disease Markers: Identifying biomarkers in human plasma from blood samples can lead to early disease detection and monitoring.
- Drug Efficacy and Safety: Blood-derived plasma is instrumental in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics studies, helping assess how drugs are processed in the body.
- Genetic Research: Plasma DNA studies are pivotal in understanding genetic diseases and developing gene therapies.
