Abstract: A method includes: depositing whole blood into at least one separator tube; subjecting the at least one separator tube to a first centrifugal force to cause a combination of the first centrifugal force and separator gel within each separator tube of the at least one separator tube to separate plasma of the whole blood from red and white blood cells of the whole blood within the at least one separator tube, wherein the plasma includes ?2M molecules; transferring one or more portions of the plasma from within the at least one separator tube and into at least one isolator; and subjecting the at least one isolator to a second centrifugal force to cause a combination of the second centrifugal force and a filter within each isolator of the at least one isolator to isolate the ?2M molecules from other components of the plasma within the at least one isolator.

Abstract: A ventilation-pipe plug includes a tubular sleeve having a sleeve outside periphery smaller than a ventilation pipe inside periphery. The sleeve includes an inlet end for receiving a gas and a hollow head attached to an end of the sleeve opposite the inlet end to allow the gas to flow from the sleeve into the head. The head includes a head outside periphery larger than the sleeve periphery diameter. The head also includes a plurality of passageways sized to allow egress of the gas from the head and to prevent ingress of animals and debris into the head.

Abstract: A ventilation-pipe cap has a cap sleeve (1) with an internal periphery having a cap fastener which fastens predeterminedly to an external periphery of a ventilation pipe (2) and has a plurality of ventilation orifices (4) sized and arranged intermediate the cap fastener and a cap apex (3) for preventing entry of debris and life forms into the ventilation pipe predeterminedly.
