  • Publication number: 20090081752
    Abstract: A bioreactor, kit, a method of using the device to promoting growing and/or culture of a cell, and a method for regenerating and/or improving the function of mammalian cells. The bioreactor includes a controlling circuit coupled to magnetic field emitter that emits relatively steep and short-lived magnetic field pulses during these an active ephemeral period. The bioreactor also provides a relatively long-term inactive phase in which no magnetic field pulses are imposed. The kit includes the unassembled components of the bioreactor. The method of using the bioreactor and of regenerating and/or improving the function of mammalian cells includes the step of applying a time variant magnetic field through the cell to promote growing and/or culturing, and then introducing the cells to a mammal to regenerate cells.

  • Publication number: 20090082610
    Abstract: An osteo or tissue healing device, kit and method of using the device to promote healing of compromised bone or tissue in a living mammal is disclosed. The osteo or tissue healing device includes a magnetic field emitter and a controlling circuit. The magnetic field emitter of the device is electrically coupled to a controlling circuit in which the magnetic field emitter is configured to provide a time variant magnetic field when driven by an electric pulse train from the controlling circuit in such a manner that the time variant magnetic field results in a magnetic (B) field exhibiting a magnetic slew rate of at least about 10 kiloGauss/sec. The controlling circuit of the device is electrically coupled to the magnetic field emitter and is configured to be powered by a power source, in which the controlling circuit is configured to output the electric pulse train driving the magnetic field emitter.

  • Publication number: 20070172466
    Abstract: A method of replenishing cells damaged by treatment for cancer comprising removing a sample of peripheral blood containing CD34+ pluripotent adult stem cells from a primate mammal, controllably expanding the cells without differentiation at a rate which produces an expansion factor of at least seven times within seven days while maintaining their three-dimensional geometry and their cell-to-cell support and cell-to-cell geometry, removing any toxic materials from the expanded undifferentiated CD34+ pluripotent adult stem cells, and reintroducing the CD34+ pluripotent adult stem cells into the primate mammal within a time period sufficient to prevent the primate mammal from suffering decreased mobility due to loss of hematopoietic or other cells from a treatment for cancer.
