A system for reconstituting circulation in a cadaver includes at least a pump, a fluid driven by the pump, and operative fluid connections between the pump and the cadaver. The system may be used to occlude one or more arterioles within the cadaver. The system may include a first circuit that creates a first fluid path with vessels of the cadaver, with first circuit having a first fluid conduit, a heater unit, a first pump, and a resistance device. The system may also include a second circuit that creates a second fluid path with vessels of the cadaver that are different from the vessels of the first circuit, with the second circuit having a second fluid conduit and a second pump. Alternately, the system may include a first circuit that creates a first fluid path with vessels of the cadaver and a second flow path that creates a second fluid path with the reservoir, where the first circuit includes a first conduit, a second connector, a pump, a reservoir, and a connector.

This invention discloses the process for lyophilization of the treated cells which comprises the use of a solution containing Trehalose along with amphipathic polymer Polyvinylpyrrolidone. Further the invention discloses the process treating cancer cells, freezing, lyophilizing and reconstituting. Immunomodulator treated dead, but intact cancerous cells were recovered, which can subsequently be used for cancer immunotherapy.

A dairy administered animal feed additive that promotes animal health and growth, reduces mortality and can act as an antibiotic substitute. The additive inhibits pathogen growth resulting in lower pathogen load within the animal and reduced pathogen sheading to the environment. The additive includes bacteria that inhibit E. coli O157:H7 growth by as much as 93% and Salmonella growth by as much as 97%, together with commensurate inhibition rates against the Big-Six Escherichia coli strains. The additive includes various combinations of the following pathogen-inhibiting bacteria: Lactobacillus animalis; Enterococcus faecium; and Pediococcus acidilactici.

Presented is an airway organ bioreactor apparatus, and methods of use thereof, as well as bioartificial airway organs produced using the methods, and methods of treating subjects using the bioartificial airway organs. The bioreactor comprises: an organ chamber; an ingres line connecting the organ chamber and a reservoir system and comprising an arterial line, a venous line and a tracheal line; an egress line connecting the chamber and the reservoir system, pumps in ingress and egress lines; a controller to control fluid exchange; a chamber pressure sensor connected to the organ chamber.

An object of the present invention is to provide a means capable of stably storing an extracellular vesicle. The present invention relates to a storage stabilizer for an extracellular vesicle, which contains a copolymer containing a monomer unit derived from vinylpyrrolidone and a monomer unit derived from vinyl acetate, or a polymer having a monomer unit derived from vinylpyrrolidone such as polyvinylpyrrolidone and relates to a storage stabilization method for an extracellular vesicle, which includes cryopreserving an extracellular vesicle in the presence of the polymer.

The invention provides integrated Organ-on-Chip microphysiological systems representations of living Organs and support structures for such microphysiological systems.

The present invention relaters to a system and methods for automated vitrification of mammalian oocytes or embryos. The system and methods enable automated processing of oocytes or embryos in vitrification solutions; robotically moving vitrification devices that carry processed cells for freezing in liquid nitrogen; automated sealing of the frozen devices; and transferring the sealed devices to an automated storage system for long-term cryopreservation.

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.
