A plasma separation system and process for providing filtered plasma from a blood sample is described. The system may include a blood separation well having a separation membrane for filtering the blood sample. The filtering process may be aided by the use of a negative or positive pressure source attached to the plasma separation system.

Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to techniques and apparatus for optimizing long term evolution (LTE) connected discontinuous reception (CDRX) for single radio hybrid tune away devices. Certain aspects provide a method for wireless communications by a user equipment (UE). The method generally includes entering a DRX mode wherein the UE alternates between an activity period and an inactivity period while connected to a first radio access technology (RAT) network, tuning away from the first RAT network for a tune away period to monitor signals in a second RAT network, determining when an inactivity timer for the DRX mode expires or will expire, and adjusting a value of the inactivity timer based, at least in part, on the determination.Se describe un sistema de separación de plasma y un proceso para proporcionar plasma filtrado a partir de una muestra de sangre. El sistema puede incluir un pozo de separación de sangre que tiene una membrana de separación para filtrar la muestra de sangre. El proceso de filtrado puede ser ayudado por el uso de una fuente de presión negativa o positiva conectada al sistema de separación de plasma.
