    Abstract: The present invention is a physical pathogen reduction method and apparatus for controlling or eliminating transfusion-transmittable infections. This purely physical technique does not involve the use of heat, chemicals and/or irradiation, each of which has significant drawbacks in the pathogen reduction of human plasma. The invention inactivates both nonenveloped and enveloped viruses as well as pathogenic bacteria and parasites in units of human plasma, while retaining the natural biological activity. integrity and potency of the treated plasma. The method uses critical, near-critical or supercritical fluids for viral and pathogen reduction of units of donor blood plasma, using novel blood plasma bags. The apparatus is in the form of a bench-top or mobile transportable unit, which can be used in hospitals, blood banks, medical facilities and hot zones in developing countries for the clearance of viruses from human plasma.
