  • Recovery of functional human leukocytes from recycled filters
    Patent number: 5989441
    Abstract: A method of recovering functional human leukocytes from blood filters used to deplete leukocyte content from leukocyte-containing blood-cell suspensions is provided. More particularly, this method involves isolating leukocytes from filters which have been used to purify red blood cells or platelets in isolation from leukocytes by back-flushing the used filters with a hemolysis solution, such as cold ammonium chloride, and collecting the functional human leukocytes.
