  • Publication number: 20230405210
    Abstract: A deagglomerator for use in resizing masses of cells is disclosed. The deagglomerator may include a plurality of apertures defined by a plurality of front and back edges. The masses of cells may be passed through the plurality of apertures from the front to the back, and from the back to the front, repeatedly. The deagglomerator may also include a plurality of blades that may aid in the deagglomeration of the cell masses. The deagglomerator may be configured between two syringes so that the tissue may be passed back and forth from the first syringe through the device to the second syringe, and then back again from the second syringe through the device and to the first syringe. In this way, the masses of cells may be properly deagglomerated.

  • Patent number: 11260179
    Abstract: A fat-harvesting syringe having a multi-functional plunger assembly. The plunger assembly comprises an outer plunger rod body, an inner central plunger rod and a piston seal assembly. The outer plunger rod body having a first and a second end. The first end having a central lumen all at its finger grip handle and at the second end having flanges that are expandable. Once the central plunger inner rod is inserted fully into central lumen of plunger rod body, the expandable flanges expands and engages with the piston seal assembly. Also when the inner plunger rod is retracted, the plunger body flanges retract back and disengages from piston seal assembly.

  • Publication number: 20210332315
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a tubing apparatus for separating and concentrating stem and stromal cells, also known as regenerative cells, from adipose tissue, more specifically to a defined process of extracting, separating and concentrating clinically useful regenerative cells from adipose tissue using a combination of mechanical disruption and filtration-centrifugation to obtain a highly enriched heterogeneous population of stem stromal cells. The centrifuge tube comprising a threaded top cap with male luer access port to be adapted to female luer of a syringe, a tapered main tubular barrel, a thin disk filter, and a bottom conical cap with luer access port for withdrawal of stem stromal cells via a syringe.

  • Publication number: 20120016337
    Abstract: An improved collection canister and method of its use for a closed loop fat harvesting system is disclosed. The collection canister comprising of a main body with inner cavity, handles on each sides, a detachable lid that includes at least two liposuction lure ports, a vacuum port to provide suction within the main body and an additional port for adding additive via a syringe as needed to treat the fat cells such as growth factors. Furthermore, the collection canister has an open/close valve for draining and withdrawing fat cells into syringes.
