ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for effectively and efficiently separating blood components by means of sedimentation action due to gravitational force are disclosed. The blood to be separated is continuously passed through a blood flow channel comprising plural flat empty spaces each having a thickness of, for example, 20 mm or less, or a plurality of tubular empty spaces each having a sectional area of, for example, 3 cm or less. An opening for a feed line is provided in a first empty space of the apparatus and two or more openings for discharge lines of the separated blood components are provided in a second empty space. These empty spaces are connected with the blood flow channel.
