    Abstract: Systems and methods for separating mono nuclear cells from whole blood rotat e a separation compartment (38) about a rotational axis. Whole blood is introduced from an inlet region (74) into a first regio n (76) of the chamber during its rotation to separte the whole blood into a plasma constituent, red blood cells and interphase between the red blood cells and the plasma constituent. The interface contains mono nuclear cells. While conveying whole blood into the first region, the plasma constituent is collected in the first region, while collecting the red blood cells in a second region of the chamber spaced away from the inlet region. Red blood cells are than conveyed into the second region (78) in a back flow direction toward the inlet region. Whi le conveying red blood cells into the second region, the mono nuclear cells are collected in the first region.

    Abstract: Blood separation systems and methods introduce blood into an annular separation channel between a low-G wall and a high-G wall while rotating the separation channel about an axis, for separation of the blood into blood components. The annular separation channel has an annular boundary wall. The systems and methods direct a first blood component into a constricted channel along the low-G wall. The systems and methods remove the first blood component through a first path that communicates with the separation channel through an opening that adjoins the constricted channel adjacent the low-G wall. The systems and methods direct a second blood component along a surface that extends generally in an axial direction along the high-G wall toward the annular boundary wall. The systems and methods collect the second blood component through a second path that communicates with the separation channel through an opening that adjoins the surface adjacent the high-G wall axially spaced from the annular boundary wall.

    Abstract: A blood separation system for separating mono nuclear cells from whole blood is described. The system comprises a chamber (12) that is rotatable about a rotational axis (28). The chamber comprises first and second spaced apart walls (24, 26) that form a separation zone having a high-G side and a low-G side which is located closer to the rotational axis than the high-G side. The chamber also includes an inlet region (74) where whole blood enters the separation zone for separation into red blood cells (96), a plasma constituent carrying platelets (98), and an interface (58) carrying mono nuclear cells between the red blood cells and the plasma constituent. A plasma constituent collection region (76) is also provided in the chamber where the plasma constituent is collected for removal from the chamber. An outlet path (46, 206) communicates with the plasma constituent collection region (76) and provides for removal of the interface (58) from the chamber. The system is operated under the control of a controller (134) that is operable in first and second modes. In the first mode, whole blood is conveyed into the inlet region while red blood cells and the plasma constituent are removed from the chamber and while the interface (58) is maintained at a set location within the chamber. In the second mode, the controller operates to move the interface from the set location for removal from the chamber via the outlet path. Finally, the system is equipped with a sensing element (226) for detecting mono nuclear cells in the interface in the outlet path. A method of separating mono nuclear cells from whole blood is also described.
