Abstract: A metalens, a metalens set, and a method of image construction or decryption are disclosed. The metalens includes metastructures each having a shape and a height related to a resonant light wavelength of the metastructure, so that the metalens can present an incident light of the resonant light wavelength as a light shape or light pattern at a far-field position matching the resonant light wavelength. A metalens set formed by staking the metalenses vertically can present incident lights having different resonant wavelengths as light shapes, light patterns, or resolved images at far-field positions matching the resonant wavelengths. Image construction or decryption are achieved by combining resolved images of the resonant light wavelengths with non-resolved images of non-resonant light wavelengths so as to compose an overlay image, which is to be decomposed by the metalens or the metalens set so as to recover the resolved images.

Abstract: A method for blood plasma protein activity preservation is provided. The method comprises the steps of mixing blood plasma with two or more protectants selected from the group consisting of triglyceride, glycerol, propylene glycol, alanine, serine, glycine, alginate, and sucrose to obtain a mixture; and lyophilizing the mixture.

Abstract: A method of stabilizing thrombin in a thrombin solution is provided. The method comprises heating the thrombin solution at a temperature of 35-85° C. for 1 to 20 seconds, and quenching the heating. Also provided is a stabilized thrombin composition. The stabilized thrombin composition is characterized in that it is prepared by heating a thrombin solution at a temperature of 35-85° C. for 1 to 20 seconds, and quenching the heating. The thrombin solution may be further lyophilized to obtain a stabilized thrombin composition in lyophilized form.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a clottable concentrate of platelet growth factors for therapeutic and/or cosmetic use, preferably comprising the growth factors PDGF, TGT-?, IGF, EGF, CTGF, bFGF and VEGF. In a preferred embodiment, the clottable concentrate of platelet growth factors does not induce blood cell-related transfusion reactions. The present disclosure also relates to a method for preparing a clottable concentrate of platelet growth factors including the steps of contacting a platelet concentrate with a solvent and/or a detergent, incubating the platelet concentrate with the solvent and/or detergent for a period of at least 5 minutes to 6 hours, at a pH maintained in a range from about 6.0 to about 9.0, and at a temperature within the range of from 2° C. to 50° C., preferably within the range of from 25° C. to 45° C., and removing the solvent and/or the detergent by oil extraction and/or chromatographic means.

Abstract: The invention concerns human platelet extracts rich in growth factors (PGF) for wound healing and stem cell expansion. Accordingly the subject invention relates to a virally-inactivated growth factors-containing platelet lysate depleted of PDGF and VEGF, which is preferably enriched in TGF, IGF and EGF-rich. The present invention further concerns a method for obtaining a platelet lysate comprising the steps of contacting a starting platelet concentrate with a solvent and/or a detergent, incubating the starting platelet concentrate with the solvent and/or detergent for a period of at least 5 minutes to 6 hours, at a pH maintained in a range from about 6.0 to about 9.0, and at a temperature within the range of from 2° C. to 50° C., optionally removing the solvent and/or the detergent by oil extraction and obtaining an aqueous protein phase, and incubating the solvent and/or detergent-treated platelet concentrate or the aqueous protein phase with charcoal.

Abstract: The present invention provides a platelet-containing composition prepared by contacting platelets with a medium for preserving. The medium comprises anticoagulant, cryoprecipitate and thrombin. The present invention also provides a method for long-term preservation of platelets, comprising the steps of: (a) adding an anticoagulant, cryoprecipitate, thrombin in normal saline; (b) adding a platelet-containing medium into the solution formed in step (a); and (c) lyophilizing the platelet-containing solution formed in step (b). Moreover, the present invention yet provides a medium for preserving non-nucleus cells.
