摘要:
A method of transplanting an injectable chondrocyte is developed for autologous chondrocyte transplantation, comprising mixing matrices including fibrin, hyaluronic acid and collagen, which are the main ingredients of animal cartilage, and injecting the resulting mixture into a damaged cartilage region. One 1 ml syringe is prepared by mixing 1 ml of a chondrocyte culture with white or light-yellow lyophilized powder (fibrinogen). A second 1 ml syringe is prepared by mixing 1 ml of chondrocyte culture with white lyophilized powder (thrombin), adding 0.1 cc of that mixture to the entire contents of two vials containing chondrocyte suspension, and mixing well. The two syringes are then mounted on a syringe stand, and a mixing tip is mounted to their tips. The contents are mixed in the mixing tip while injecting the resulting mixture into a damaged cartilage region of an animal.
