Catheter for intravenous transfusions or canula for IP transferring. IgG radial immunodiffusion plate - available separately. Frozen plasma bags should be carefully removed from the freezer to prevent cracking of the bag, as the plastic becomes brittle upon freezing. If heated too long, small permanent clots will form. Discard if this occurs.

Some precipitation will be seen in partially thawed plasma but will disappear in fully warmed plasma. Do not keep the plasma at elevated temperatures for long periods of time.
