Abstract: A micro-needle roller (MNR) infusion system for transdermal delivery of active agents, skin-care products, and other topical formulations is described herein. The infusion system of the instant invention comprises a needle roller assembly with needles enclosed in a housing with a vacuum line and a disposable cartridge having the active agent, the skin-care product or the topical formulation. The vacuum delivers the fluid and ensures that the skin is being pulled against the needle wheel surface to ensure that penetration of the needles is complete into the skin, simultaneously the fluid is flowing to the wheel and to skin as it rolls along with the outer housing of the tip cap assembly being occluded to the skin surface.

Abstract: A micro-needle roller (MNR) infusion system for transdermal delivery of active agents, skin-care products, and other topical formulations is described herein. The infusion system of the instant invention comprises a needle roller assembly with 0.25 mm needles enclosed in a housing with a vacuum line and a disposable cartridge having the active agent, the skin-care product or the topical formulation. The vacuum delivers the fluid and ensures that the skin is being pulled against the needle wheel surface to ensure that penetration of the needles is complete into the skin, simultaneously the fluid is flowing to the wheel and to skin as it rolls along with the outer housing of the tip cap assembly being occluded to the skin surface.

Abstract: The present invention includes a harvesting and irrigation device, a method and a kit for the collection of viable fat cells and/or adipose tissue with decreased handing and improved yield and viability.

Abstract: A test assembly is used to determine a characteristic of a separator sheet. The test assembly includes a source of light to illuminate at least a portion of the separator sheet. The test assembly also includes a vision inspection system to record at least one discrete image of the illuminated surface of the separator sheet and apply at least one test to the discrete image to determine the characteristic of the separator sheet.

Abstract: The present invention is embodied in a separator sheet handling assembly 10 that includes a lifting assembly 20 adapted to receive a pallet 12 containing a stack of separator sheets 14. The lifting assembly 20 positions the stack of separator sheets 14 into a predetermined location where a feed assembly 30 engages a separator sheet 16 positioned at the top of the stack of separator sheets 14. The feed assembly 30 removes the separator sheet 16 and transports it to a test assembly 50 where the separator sheet 16 is monitored for a particular characteristic such as cleanliness or structural integrity. The separator sheet 16 is delivered to a first storage assembly 60 if the separator sheet 16 has the particular characteristic, or a second storage assembly 70 if the separator sheet 16 does not include the particular characteristic.
