Abstract: Injectable mediums and methods for preparing and administering an injectable medium comprising therapeutic cells, and optionally one or more therapeutic or diagnostic substance, suitable for injection into an anatomical space of a human or animal subject, comprising hyaluronic acid in concentrations of 0.5 weight percent to 1.0 weight percent having a molecular weight of about ?700 kDa to about 1,900 kDa and a storage modulus within the range of 5-25 Pa, which injectable mediums and methods prevent cell settling during transportation and storage of such injectable mediums comprising therapeutic cells, and optionally therapeutic or diagnostic substances; promote cell survival; facilitate administration of homogeneous injectable mediums comprising therapeutic cells, in particular NSCs; and enable rapid clearance by the body following injection, so as not to interfere with cellular integration with surrounding tissue.

Abstract: Injection devices and methods for delivering a trail of therapeutic cells and/or one or more therapeutic substances or diagnostic substances or injectable medium into an anatomical space of an animal or human subject, particularly a trail of therapeutic cells and/or one or more therapeutic substances or diagnostic substances or injectable medium into the spinal cord of a subject and to deliver a trail of therapeutic cells and/or one or more therapeutic substances or diagnostic substances or injectable medium inside the spinal cord, to treat an injury or disorder of the central nervous system requiring injection of cells and/or one more therapeutic substances. The devices and methods are useful for the treatment of a variety of traumas, conditions and diseases, in particular, spinal cord injuries, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis and spinal ischemia as well as other spinal cord degenerative conditions and pathologies.

Abstract: A smart-card chip arrangement comprises: a smart-card chip (148); an organic semiconductor layer (166, 168, 170, 172) disposed on a surface of the chip, and at least one transistor (150, 152, 154, 156) formed in the organic semiconductor layer. The at least one transistor is configured so as to enable an invasive attack on the chip to be detected.
