  • Patent number: 11865077
    Abstract: The invention regards a device for reconstituting a bioactive agent and forming a flowable paste, the device comprising: —a base configured for receiving: —a first container containing a liquid, and —a second container containing the bioactive agent, —a syringe containing a paste forming material, the syringe being attachable to the base, wherein the base has a first conduit for fluidly connecting the first container with the second container and a second conduit for fluidly connecting the second container with the syringe, and wherein the first container is configured to be pressurizable such that when the first and second containers are received at the base, the liquid is forced through the first conduit into the second container, thereby reconstituting the bioactive agent, and the reconstituted bioactive agent is forced through the second conduit into the syringe, such that a paste is formed.

  • Patent number: 11103616
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dry composition comprising one or more polyols, which upon addition of an aqueous medium forms a substantially homogenous paste suitable for use in haemostasis procedures. The paste reconstitutes spontaneously upon addition of the liquid; hence no mechanical mixing is required for said paste to form. The composition may further comprise an extrusion enhancer, such as albumin. Also disclosed are methods of preparing said dry composition, a paste obtained from said dry composition and uses of said dry composition or paste for medical and surgical purposes.

  • Patent number: 10918796
    Abstract: A syringe for mixing two substances which have been retained separately inside the syringe is described, for instance in a storage condition. The syringe is used for 1) retaining a dry composition in a vacuum, and 2) mixing the dry composition with an aqueous medium to form a flowable substance. One embodiment, a syringe for retaining and mixing first and second substances comprises a barrel comprising a sealable and/or closable distal outlet and a vacuum chamber for holding a first substance, a plunger incorporating a reservoir chamber for holding a second substance and configured to be axially displaced through a proximal end of the barrel, a membrane separating the vacuum chamber and the reservoir chamber, and a pointed member, such as one or more needles, for penetrating the membrane, wherein the syringe is configured such that the membrane and the pointed member are axially slidable in relation to each other.
