摘要:
A method and apparatus for obtaining various components of a multi-component material. Generally, a component of a whole blood sample may be concentrated from a patient and re-introduced to the same patient. For example, a clotting component, such as thrombin, from a whole blood sample may be extracted and concentrated in an apparatus and collection to be reapplied or reintroduced into a patient.
摘要:
A device for spraying a biological substance onto a biocompatible implant. The device includes a housing that defines a sterile chamber. A spray head is within the chamber and proximate to a first end. A first conduit is configured to direct the biological substance into the chamber through a first spray tip of the spray head. A second conduit is configured to direct an activator into the chamber through a second spray tip of the spray head. A third conduit is configured to direct compressed air to the chamber through a third spray tip of the spay head. The spray head is configured to direct a coating of the biological substance as activated by the activator to the implant seated within the chamber at a second end that is opposite to the first end.
摘要:
An apparatus that allows for separating and collecting a fraction of a sample. The apparatus, when used with a centrifuge, allows for the creation of at least three fractions in the apparatus. It also provides for a new method of extracting the buffy coat phase from a whole blood sample and mesenchymal stem cells from bone reaming material. A buoy system that may include a first buoy portion and a second buoy member operably interconnected may be used to form at least three fractions from a sample during a substantially single centrifugation process. Therefore, the separation of various fractions may be substantially quick and efficient.
摘要:
A buoy or float can be positioned within a separation container to assist in a physical separation of components of a whole material positioned in the separation container. The buoy can be positioned within the container to move from between and separation a first end and a second end of the container substantially unaffected by a portion of the whole material, including a clotted portion thereof. A first port can be provided near the first end of the container for introduction of the whole material and a second port can be provided near the second end of the container for removal of at least a portion of a separated material.

摘要:
Methods for treating a tissue defect include applying therapeutic compositions to the tissue defect. Treatment of a tissue defect, including wound healing can be enhanced by a process including obtaining blood compatible with the subject, fractionating the blood from the subject to produce a blood component, obtaining stromal cells from the subject, combining the stromal cells and the blood component to form a therapeutic composition, and delivering the therapeutic composition to the tissue defect. Therapeutic compositions for promoting wound healing include isolated stromal cells and a blood component.
