ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods remove a contaminant from a fluid like blood, regardless of whether the contaminant is carried free within the fluid or entrained within cellular matter carried within the fluid. The systems and methods rely upon photodynamic processes to remove free contaminants from the fluid. The systems and methods rely upon separation processes to remove the cellular matter and, with it, the contaminants it entrains from the fluid.
