Amaphepha eefilthari entlungwini, eveliswa yindawo entle yodonga, yenziwe ngokukodwa kwiimveliso zegazi. La maphepha ahluma anezakhono ezizodwa ze-lipid, ukuphelisa ngokufanelekileyo i-lipid kwigazi. Ngezixhobo ezisemgangathweni eziphezulu kunye noyilo olufanelekileyo, baqinisekisa uzinzo kunye nokuthembeka kokufihlakeleyo, ukuvumela iimveliso zegazi ziphathwe ngokukhululeka. Nokuba isetyenziselwa ukutofelwa igazi, ukulungiselela iPlasma, okanye ezinye iinkqubo zokulungisa igazi, amaphepha efihlakeleyo anokhetho oluthembekileyo, abonelela ngeemveliso zegazi ezifanelekileyo nezicocekileyo.
