==Introduction==
Plasma is the fluid portion of the blood in which the blood cells are suspended. Plasma in combination with the interstitial fluid makes up the extracellular body fluid compartment.
Blood plasma can be prepared following centrifugation of a fresh sample that has been placed in a sample pot containing anti-coagulant.
Whilst in the centrifuge the red blood cells separate and fall to the bottom leaving a layer fo yellow plasma on top.
