Leukopak FAQs
Did you know your white blood cells play a key role in developing treatments for cancer and autoimmune diseases? Through leukopak donation, scientists can use these cells for groundbreaking medical research and cell therapy advancements.
During the leukapheresis process, only your white blood cells are collected, while the rest of your blood is safely returned to your body.
Leukopaks are made of white blood cells needed for medical research and cell therapy development, including:
- Cancer immunotherapy
- Stem cell research
- Autoimmune disease studies
- You are connected to an apheresis machine, which draws blood.
- The machine isolates and collects white blood cells.
- The remaining blood components (like red cells and plasma) are returned to your body.
- The process typically takes 3-4 hours.
