title: [The use of high gradient magnetic separation (HGMS) in obtaining red blood cell mass].
abstract: This paper presents the "high gradient magnetic separation" (HGMS) and its use in red blood cells separation. A high gradient magnetic field system is described (set up from a filamentary iron-magnetic matrix), that is specially design for red blood cells capture. The configurations and the conditions that are needed for the red blood cells concentration process to allow the red blood cells mass to by obtained are evaluated. Finally, another possible technique of red blood cells concentration based on a type of continual magnetic separation is described.
