Abstract: A biocontainment assembly for use with a patient suspected of having or diagnosed with a transmissible disease(s) capable of respiratory, airborne, contact, or droplet transmission includes a housing configured to be positioned over and at least partially enclose a head, neck, and/or torso of the patient. A sidewall of the housing includes an open portion contiguous with an at least partially pen bottom portion of the housing, sized to fit over at least a portion of the head, neck, and/or a torso of the patient. The housing also includes an airflow opening for evacuating fluid from an interior defined by the housing. The assembly also includes a drape configured to extend across the open portion of the sidewall having a first portion removably connected to the housing and an opposing second portion configured to be draped over the torso, abdomen, waist, and/or legs of the patient.

Abstract: A device for removing fat from a body can include a pair of nested hollow members that each has at least one opening and an adjustment means for adjusting the orientation of the nested hollow members from a first configuration to a second configuration to change an amount of overlap between openings in the nested hollow members. The nested members can be deformable to change the shape of the openings.

Abstract: The inventions provided herein relate to compositions, methods, delivery devices and kits for repairing or augmenting a tissue in a subject. The compositions described herein are injectable such that they can be placed in a tissue to be treated with a minimally-invasive procedure (e.g., by injection) and/or be molded flexibly into a tissue void of any shape and/or size. In some embodiments, the composition described herein comprises a plurality of silk fibroin particles, which can retain their original volume within the tissue for a period of time. The compositions can be used as a filler to replace a tissue void, e.g., for tissue repair and/or augmentation, or as a scaffold to support tissue regeneration and/or reconstruction. In some embodiments, the compositions described herein can be used for soft tissue repair or augmentation.

Abstract: Methods, devices, and kits are provided for use in washing or cryopreserving live cells or tissue, such as fat graft tissue.

Abstract: Provided herein are methods of making a cell growth scaffold from adipose tissue, cell growth scaffolds having low lipid content and methods of using the cell growth scaffold.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to systems and/or biopolymer devices and methods of using the same. The systems and/or biopolymer devices described herein can be used for delivery of a fluid and/or molecules such as therapeutic agent(s), and/or for recruitment or collection of body fluids, e.g., for medical diagnosis. Methods of making and using the systems and/or biopolymer devices are also provided herein. In some embodiments, the systems and/or biopolymer devices can be used for continuous delivery of a therapeutic agent to repair or regenerate a tissue in a subject. In some embodiments, the biopolymer devices can be adapted for use as a catheter for fluid delivery to a target site.
