Hmm. I wonder if they could just take part of the plasma to get the same antibodies.

Asking for clarity. Are you asking in the context of different types of treatments overall or different types of transfusions besides plasma?

A couple of companies are developing antibody-based pharmaceuticals

Hello TCsers! It's been a year since I joined and currently I'm working for a hectic project 🥲. My mental health is not stable, depressed day by day due to the pressure. I've asked my manager multiple times regarding release and spoken to the HR as well.

Everytime I get 1 answer I.e. you'll have to complete "atleast 1 year" in this project. I had joined the project in March 21. Any suggestions? Please help me out.

I had an amniocentesis performed at 16 weeks and found out today (19.5 weeks) that the chromosome analysis and microarray to test for microdeletions came back normal. Had they not come back normal, I would have aborted. I am distraught that others will not have this choice now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade.

I was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of 12. My family did not opt to put me on medication. I illegally discovered Adderall in college. Worked incredible. Got diagnosed after college & after having been fired from my first job. Passed the CPA exams on Adderall. Went off of it again. I do everything well at my job except for attention to detail within my excel files & emails. Will taking ADHD medication really fix this? Does anyone else have this issue and was it resolved by taking medication?
