Human Serum donation for a good cause

Human Serum is the elementary part of human blood which is not a blood cell and also not a clotting factor, but simply the plasma without the fibrinogens in it. Fibrinogen is a protein in the plasma that is essential for the coagulation of blood and is converted to fibrin by thrombin and ionized calcium, also the clotting factor of it. Serum does not contain all the proteins that are responsible for coagulation or the clotting. Also, it does not have the essential components which are required for antibodies, hormones and other microorganisms. Being a part of human blood serum does not contain any WBC or RBC in it. Though, it is very essential factor for the self renewal of embryonic stem cells in combination with the cytokine leukemia inhibitory factor. These were all the medical facts, but talking in general people are donating the blood, plasma as well the human serum. This without causing any harm to the donor is working as a life saving substance for many ailing people. These Human Blood Products are proving to be very useful in the preparation of medications or drugs for some of the rare and chronic diseases. Many therapies are made using these products from the body. These substances works wonders when present in the body by providing the accurate flow of blood in the human body and when taken out works as a life saving substance for many diseases like cancer, tumors etc. Serum Donation is not though very common yet like other donation, but many people around the globe are now coming forward for such donations either for money or as a noble deed. There are many camps or clinics set up for taking this out from the human body. Serum Donation can prove to be a very helpful cause for saving many lives. Human Serum is extracted from the body in these clinics with the help of a gel tube with a clotting accelerator attached to it. The blood is collected and rested till clotting starts for about 20 to 30 minutes in general, but which accelerator it will be done more quickly and then the serum is separated from it, as this part do not clot with the blood. When it is extracted and kept on centrifugation at 1500g for 10 minutes, it pulls the required cells below the gel layer which

can be taken out easily now. It is then effectively sealed off from the cells and is stored at 4 degrees Celsius. Then with an automated method immunoturbidimetry which is traceable to the CRM 470 (Reference Preparation for Proteins in Serum) it is being sampled and forwarded for the medication use. All these Human Blood Products when extracted from the body cause no harm to the donors, and can be easily regenerated in the body within short span of time. Though post the extraction process the donor may face little of dizziness or discomfort, which is though very minor. Drinking of fluids like juice and water before the donation is advisable to cause less discomfort to the donor.
