PLATELETPHERESIS
Plateletpheresis is the process of collecting thrombocytes, more commonly called platelets, a component of blood involved in blood clotting.
Platelets have a short shelf life and are therefore prepared fresh, as and when required. Platelet collection is done by a cell separator machine which collects only platelets from the blood and rest of the blood is returned back into the donor. This procedure is called plateletpheresis .
CHORIONIC VILLUS SAMPLING

Chorionic villus sampling (CVS) is a prenatal test that is used to detect birth defects, genetic diseases, and other problems during pregnancy. During the test, a small sample of cells (called chorionic villi) is taken from the placenta where it attaches to the wall of the uterus.

A CVS test can be done generally between 10 and 13 weeks of pregnancy. CVS is a prenatal test is used to diagnose genetic disorders in the fetus.
In order to analyze the chromosomes fully, the cells from the placenta must first be grown. The final chromosome result is usually available within 5 to 10 days. If a CVS is done to test for a specific genetic disorder, results may take a little longer.
