1-7. (canceled)
A blood treatment system comprising:
- a blood product separator configured to receive blood and to separate the blood into components comprising:
- (i) blood containing cells and (ii) filtered plasma water containing viruses;
- an electroporation chamber configured to receive the filtered plasma water containing viruses from the blood product separator and to output treated blood that has a decreased pathogenicity because of an electroporation treatment of the filtered plasma water containing viruses in the electroporation chamber;
- a first pump configured to pump treated blood received from the electroporation chamber to the patient;
- and
- a second pump configured to pump the virus-free filtered plasma water output from the blood product separator to the patient.
