Cost of Production and Convenience of Multicomponent Procedures

Abstract

Multicomponent procedures have recently undergone remarkable development. For this reason the Scientific Committee of the National Congress in Trieste, during the session “Toward the global apheresis”, thought it opportune to execute an analysis of their cost, in order to evaluate an eventual real economic convenience of same. Of course this evaluation can only be in general terms, since we must consider both plasmaproduction costs, determined by organization, costs of materials and methods of equipment acquisition, along with agreements made with the plasma transformation industries, which vary from country to country.
