When a test is run on your blood in a laboratory for an infectious disease, autoimmune disease, or hepatitis testing, the FDA requires that a quality control group be run with the test to make sure it is working properly. The FDA also requires that this vital quality control material come from human plasma (this ensures the utmost accuracy for the test kit). The only way to get this needed material is from consenting adult plasma donors who have an infectious disease, like hepatitis A, or an autoimmune disease.

Biolynk’s Plasma Donation Program educates and recruits patients who have been diagnosed with certain illnesses and infectious diseases. Specifically, we look for patients who have been diagnosed with an infectious disease, such as the hepatitis B or hepatitis A virus, in the past 2-3 weeks. We also look for patients who have ever been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease or patients who carry rare, polyclonal blood antibodies.

If you have been diagnosed with any one of the diseases we look for and you meet our specific donor qualifications, you can become a plasma donor for this vital quality control material. You will be compensated each and every time you donate (up to $500 per donation, based on qualification).
