merging with Blood plasma fractionation edit

I think it's a bad idea, as the two subjects, though related, are quite distinct. One involves separating cells from a suspension, and the other involves separating components of a solution. WolfmanSF (talk) 21:44, 28 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

The content in this article is incorrect. It says that blood fractionation is the separation of red blood cells (hematocrit) from the plasma. Fractionation is actually the process of separating the different types of proteins within plasma once it has already been separated from the red blood cells.
