Apheresis: The process of removing a specific component from blood and returning the remaining components to the donor , in order to collect more of one particular part of the blood than could be separated from a unit of whole blood. Also called hemapheresis or pheresis .

The forms of apheresis include:

• Plasmapheresis -- to harvest plasma (the liquid part of the blood)
• Leukapheresis -- to harvest leukocytes (white blood cells)
• Granulocytapheresis -- to harvest granulocytes ( neutrophils , eosinophils , and basophil)
• Lymphocytapheresis -- to harvest lymphocytes
• Lymphoplasmapheresis - to harvest lymphocytes and plasma
• Plateletpheresis (thrombocytapheresis) - to harvest platelets ( thrombocytes )

Apheresis takes longer than a whole blood donation. A whole blood donation takes about 10-20 minutes to collect the blood, while an apheresis donation may take about 1-2 hours.
