The IMUGARD III-PL filter is a hard-housing filter intended for the removal of leukocytes and microaggregates from platelet preparations. Each filter system is integrated with a spike, clamps and tubing. The filter housing is semitransparent, which is easy to monitor the filtration process. The IMUGARD III-PL is available in a laboratory version and a bedside version, with a bypass tube on the laboratory version for removal of air from the transfer bag. The bedside version has a drip chamber and a roller clamp under the filter for the adjustment of the flow to the patient.
