Lateral Flow Immunoassay system were used for newborn screening test and these systems consist of some parts including plasma separation membrane part, I found lots of plasma separation membrane pad but they used for lower hematocrit sample like adult blood and because of higher hematocrit blood of neonates I think that these systems use special filters for separating plasma from blood and I want to know about that.
thank you
Hello Ali,
I believe some of them are made of Asymmetric polysulfone. But you can find other types of filters in the publications below, which are more on the R&D academic side. I hope this helps.
