Keep Yourselves in God's Love (book), “Appendix: Blood Fractions and Surgical Procedures”

“Fractions are derived from the four primary blood components—red cells, white cells, platelets, and plasma.”

'The Bible does not give specific details, so each one must make his own conscientious decision before God.' Haemodilution and cell salvage described; suggested directive: 'no blood transfusions (whole blood, red cells, white cells, platelets, or blood plasma) be given to me under any circumstances'.
