What type of tests are performed on donated plasma at CSL Plasma?

The testing of donated plasma at CSL Plasma primarily focuses on identifying the presence of infectious diseases and measuring antibody levels. These tests are crucial for ensuring the safety of the plasma for both the donor and potential recipients. Such tests can detect various pathogens, including viruses that could be transmitted through blood products, ensuring that the plasma collected does not pose a risk to patients who may receive transfusions or use plasma-derived therapy.

Monitoring antibody levels is also essential, as it helps assess the donor's immune response and can influence the therapeutic uses of the plasma. This thorough testing process is part of the rigorous safety protocols in place at CSL Plasma to uphold public health and the integrity of plasma donations.

Other options may cover aspects related to blood donations or general health assessments but do not specifically align with the testing protocols established for plasma safety. The emphasis on infectious disease testing and antibody evaluation reflects the critical concerns in plasma collection and use.
