A system for preparing a thrombin serum that can include a containment device, a cage received within the containment device, a cap attachable to the containment device, an inlet port configured to introduce a non-anti-coagulated autologous blood fluid into the containment device, and an outlet port. An activator, such as glass beads, can be present within the containment device.

Provided is a method of purifying a protein of interest from a medium comprised of adsorbent and the protein, the method includes, inter alia, providing the medium of the protein, which is at least partially adsorbed into/onto the adsorbent, and performing pressure filtering to wash the adsorbent-adsorbed protein and/or to elute the protein from the adsorbent, thereby at least partially purifying the protein.

Disclosed herein is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component comprising: fibrinogen at a concentration of about 5 to 25 mg/ml; and free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Further disclosed is an anti-adhesion kit comprised of: (i) a fibrinogen solution component containing fibrinogen at a concentration of 8% to 25% of total protein by weight, and optionally free calcium ions at a concentration ranging from 0.1 μM to 1 mM; wherein a total protein concentration ranges from about 80 to 120 mg/ml; and (ii) a thrombin component containing thrombin. Methods of using the kits e.g., to provide anti-adhesion curable compositions are also disclosed.

Methods are described for treating a heart disease, comprising suspending c) mesenchymal stem cells in either a) a fibrinogen solution or b) a thrombin solution, thereby obtaining a cell suspension, and directly spraying the cell suspension on a disease site substantially at the same time with the other of a) the fibrinogen solution or b) the thrombin solution that is not used in the suspending.

The present invention provides a hemostatic porous composite sponge comprising i) a matrix of a biomaterial; and ii) one hydrophilic polymeric component comprising reactive groups wherein i) and ii) are associated with each other so that the reactivity of the polymeric component is retained, wherein associated means that said polymeric component is coated onto a surface of said matrix of a biomaterial, or said matrix is impregnated with said polymeric material, or both.
