Abstract
A plasmapheresis assembly includes a fluid manifold which interconnects the phlebotomy needle of the assembly with a pair of blood collection containers. The manifold includes a removably insertable plug member which, when inserted, blocks fluid flow through the manifold to retain anticoagulant solution in the containers prior to use and which, after removal, affords fluid flow through the manifold and permits the attachment of a recipient set to the manifold.
