Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods of enhancing toxicity of a glycolytic dependent compound towards a cancerous tissue and/or organ in a subject, the method being comprised of targeting the glycolytic dependent compound to the cancerous tissue and/or organ by placing oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) and/or oxidized cellulose (OC) in direct connection with the cancerous tissue and/or organ, and administering the glycolytic dependent compound to the subject by a systemic route.

Abstract: Provided is a method of purifying a protein of interest from a medium comprised of adsorbent and the protein, the method includes, inter alia, providing the medium of the protein, which is at least partially adsorbed into/onto the adsorbent, and performing pressure filtering to wash the adsorbent-adsorbed protein and/or to elute the protein from the adsorbent, thereby at least partially purifying the protein.

Abstract: Provided are implants and a glycolytic dependent compound for use in enhancing toxicity of the glycolytic dependent compound towards a cell, tissue and/or organ e.g., a diseased cell, tissue and/or organ, wherein the implant and the glycolytic dependent compound are contacted with the cell, tissue and/or organ in a non-blended form.

Abstract: Provided is a method of enhancing toxicity of a glycolytic dependent compound towards a cell, tissue and/or organ e.g. a diseased cell, tissue and/or organ, the method comprises contacting Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose (ORC) and/or Oxidized Cellulose (OC); and a glycolytic dependent compound with the cell, tissue and/or organ. The ORC and/or OC; and the glycolytic dependent compound are contacted with the cell, tissue and/or organ in a non-blended form.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to methods for the production of thrombin from a source of prothrombin using a given BaSO4 reagent as an adsorbent of prothrombin as well as methods for evaluating the suitability of a given BaSO4 reagent for use in preparation of thrombin. In at least one embodiment, the method includes contacting a sample of the given BaSO4 reagent with a source of prothrombin to obtain BaSO4-adsorbed prothrombin, and subsequently evaluating the pro-coagulant activity of the BaSO4-adsorbed prothrombin. In another embodiment, the method includes the step of evaluating relative to the pro-coagulant activity of normal mammalian plasma.

Abstract: The invention relates to a prosthetic for repairing an opening or a defect in a soft tissue, to its preparation and use. The prosthetic of the invention comprises a substrate viscerally-coated with stabilized and non-completely dry fibrin. The prosthetic displays reduced postoperative complications following its implantation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a viral-safe platelet extract, to its preparation and use. The extract comprises a mixture of biologically active platelet derived factors. Advantageously, the extract comprises a balanced proportion of the factors and is non-clottable.
