Abstract: When thawing/heating sensitive organic materials such as frozen blood plasma with the help of electromagnetic fields below 400 MHz, for example, hoses and other protruding parts thaw faster than the rest of the plasma, which results in coagulated plasma. This makes the blood plasma unsuitable for transfusion. By placing the protruding portions between surfaces of metallic conductive material, these portions are protected from overheating.

Abstract: A cartridge holds a perishable dielectric load, e.g. blood plasma, during heating n a heating chamber by means of an electromagnetic field from an emitting element. A conducting container of the cartridge is arranged between the emitting element and the perishable dielectric load. The conducting container holds dielectric matter and is arranged in contact with a load container for the perishable dielectric load, so that energy from the electromagnetic field is bridged into the perishable dielectric load. A first surface of the cartridge faces the emitting element and contains a recess for receiving any fluid having leaked out from the conducting container and/or the load container. A transmitter module for generating the electromagnetic energy repeatedly measures an impedance of the perishable dielectric load and the conducting container. If, due to any fluid being located in the recess, the impedance deviates substantially from a previous measurement, an alarm signal is generated.

Abstract: This invention is about a method and a device for equalizing warming processes in dielectric loads using electric/electromagnetic fields at frequencies below 900 MHz. Characteristic for the invention is that the load is surrounded by a field equalizing material and that the load and the electric/electromagnetic field is moved relative to each other.
