Question

Are platelets in plasma?

Answer 1

I don't know if this will help at but it might

Blood contains several components, including red blood cells, platelets, white blood cells and plasma. During platelet or plasma donation, your blood is collected and then separated into its components by a machine; the machine keeps the platelets or plasma and returns the rest to you. Your blood stays confined within a single-use sterile tubing kit and sterile equipment, so the process is completely safe. This procedure allows you to donate more frequently.

Platelet or plasma donations take approximately 1 1/2 to two hours. The Mayo Clinic Blood Donor Center in Rochester, Minn., provides televisions, video-on-demand and wireless Internet access for donors to use during donations.

Answer 2

Not quite. Blood (whole blood) is composed of many different things. Plasma is a clear liquid that is what red and white blood cells are suspended in.
