I think the medical care or something else was expensive. I did a search and I see 20% albumin solution was about $8 per 50ml. https://www.drugs.com/price-guid

I searched and apparently there’s about 3 liters of plasma in the body.
So that’s only about $480 for a full replacement of the body’s plasma, or $240 for what this research did.
It’s probably more expensive because of the machine for filtering the blood and so on. But it doesn’t seem that the raw materials for the replacement solution are expensive.
- jolmg 6y agoIt would seem to be a pretty big factor if I'm reading correctly that it'd be $480/day.
