Hydration media for biological tissue products, methods of making the same and methods of using
A hydration media for biological tissue products, methods of making the same and methods of using the same is provided. The hydration media includes sodium phosphate and calcium silicate and can be used to store or hydrate a biological tissue product.
Mandible Clamping Device
The positioning of the mandible clamp within the person's jaw or mouth is accomplished by either of two embodiments. One embodiment uses a pair of flanged surface that allow a person to push a barb through the gap in a person's teeth on the upper teeth and the lower teeth to hold the jaw shut during presentation to the family. This first embodiment contemplates use for a period who has natural teeth at the time of death. The second embodiment resembles a clamp that is placed over the person's gums both on the upper gum as well as the lower gum to secure the jaws together. This second embodiment is used with person's who did not have natural teeth at the time of death. After the respective openings are placed over the gum areas of the person's upper and lower gums a tension member slides over the outside surface of the clamp to produce gripping of the gum by the device. A plurality of gripping knobs on the interior of the respective clamps is provided to produce additional grip on the person's gums.
TAXIDERMY DISPLAY UNIT AND RELATED METHOD OF USE
A turkey beard display and a method of displaying a turkey beard is provided. The method can include inserting a turkey beard into a body so that connective tissue of the turkey beard that is joined with a plurality of hairs passes by a plurality of arms projecting inward toward a longitudinal axis of the body such that the connective tissue passes by the plurality of arms to thereby enter an interior compartment. The arms can penetrate into and among the plurality of hairs to secure the turkey beard to the body.
Tube array type nitrogen canister
A tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container includes a container body having a mouth; a tube array component received in the container body; and a top cap sealing the mouth from above. The top cap is rotatable in the mouth. The tube array component is composed of a plurality of holding tubes. The holding tube is opened at one end thereof, wherein the opening thereof faces the top cap. The top cap has at least one tube access passing therethrough. Each tube access is atop covered by a tube access cover. The tube-array-type liquid nitrogen container uses a tube-array component composed of the a plurality of holding tubes to store the freezing tubes, and is cooperated with the rotatable top cap and an external robotic arm, thereby improving space utilization and thermal insulation, effectively ensuring safety of the freezing tubes, and facilitating automatic storage of freezing tubes.

Speed controlled centrifugal pump embalming systems and method of using the same
An embalming machine including a housing, at least one fluid tank supported by the housing, a plurality of hose segments disposed at least partially within the housing, a centrifugal fluid transfer pump, a pressure gauge, and a first solenoid is disclosed. The pump is engaged with at least one hose segment of the plurality of hose segments. The pressure gauge is configured to read a pressure of the fluid flowing therethrough. The first solenoid is configured to allow fluid to flow therethrough when current is applied to the first solenoid, and is configured to prevent fluid from flowing therethrough when no current is applied to the first solenoid, wherein the centrifugal fluid transfer is controlled to improve displacement output and pressure of embalming fluid entering a cadaver during an embalming process.
Method of introduction and removal of high concentrations of cryoprotectants by vascular perfusion
This invention relates to the preservation of vascularized tissues and organs by freezing or by vitrification; to organ and tissue cryopreservation or banking; and to tissue and organ perfusion with cryoprotective agents (also known as cryoprotectants).
AMNION TISSUE GRAFTS AND METHODS OF PREPARING AND USING SAME
The invention provides method for preparing amnion tissue grafts, as well as the grafts themselves. In specific embodiments, the tissue graft comprises a single layer of dried amnion from an umbilical cord.

METHOD OF PRESERVING ORGANISMS AND APPARATUS THEREOF
A simple, natural method of preserving organisms includes sealing biological blood or organisms in a shell filled with resin, curing the resin, and solidifying the shell for a long time to form amber. The biological blood or organisms can be preserved for a long time. Scholars of later generations may research the integrity of the biological blood or organisms of the present days. Otherwise, the biological blood or organisms may be of no researching meaning and purposes due to pollution or oxidation and dehydration. The organisms of the present days may be reconstructed after 100 years by using technologies of that time. Thus, the organisms being extinct due to pollution can be reconstructed. Diversities of organisms on the earth can be maintained. Precious genes of the organisms of the present days can be preserved for thousands years. It contributes greatly to the study of evolution of organisms.
