Abstract: The present invention provides adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), adipose-derived stem cell-enriched fractions (ADSC-EF) and adipose-derived lattices, alone and combined with the ADSCs of the invention. In one aspect, the present invention provides an ADSC substantially free of adipocytes and red blood cells and clonal populations of connective tissue stem cells. The ADSCs can be employed, alone or within biologically-compatible compositions, to generate differentiated tissues and structures, both in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, the ADSCs can be expanded and cultured to produce molecules such as hormones, and to provide conditioned culture media for supporting the growth and expansion of other cell populations. In another aspect, the present invention provides a adipose-derived lattice substantially devoid of cells, which includes extracellular matrix material from adipose tissue.

Abstract: A method and device for creating hanging drop cell aggregates. The method and device includes a plurality of pegs that allow for high throughput culture of aggregates. Also disclosed are means of transferring formed aggregates to various destinations, such as well plates, scaffolding, tissues, or wounds. Use of the device permits aggregates to be prepared or created in larger quantities than current methods, and allows for them to be transferred more efficiently.
