Fat-depleted adipose tissue and a device and method for preparing the same
A device configured to mechanically remove a fat phase from at least one adipose tissue includes a first pressing element and a second pressing element. Furthermore, a method for preparing a preparation including a fat-depleted adipose tissue, comprises mechanically removing a fat phase from at least one adipose tissue. In addition, there is provided a preparation including a fat-depleted adipose tissue, wherein the fat-depleted adipose tissue is prepared by mechanically removing a fat phase from at least one adipose tissue.
TISSUE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING ADIPOSE TISSUE
A method for processing biological material containing stringy tissue in a container having a tissue collector disposed in a tissue retention volume on one side of an internal filter includes washing biological material contained in the tissue retention volume with wash liquid to the tissue retention volume and allowing the wash liquid and rotating the tissue collector disposed in the tissue retention volume relative to the container in a first direction of rotation about an axis of rotation to sweep the teeth positioned on the tissue collector through the biological material and to collect stringy material on the tissue collector.
LIPOSUCTION DEVICE AND USE THEREOF
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method of cosmetic or biomedical application of a device, comprising a self-contained syringe device comprising an inner syringe included within an outer syringe and wherein a filter is attached inside the outer syringe barrel; wherein the filter comprises a filter material that prevents premature filter collapse where the filter material is optionally coated to increase stiffness, and wherein liposuctioned adipose tissue is collected and purified inside the syringes.
MICRO-LIPO NEEDLE DEVICES AND USE THEREOF
Embodiments of the present invention disclose micro-lipo needle device and methods of making and using the same.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HARVESTING AUTOLOGOUS ADIPOSE TISSUE
A triple-chambered container includes: a main container body with a first chamber which has an opening at its distal end; a main barrel formed and movable longitudinally within the first chamber, the main barrel defining therein a second chamber for receiving fluids, the main barrel further having an apertured stopper at its distal end; a second barrel formed within the main barrel, the second barrel defining a third chamber for receiving fluids, the second barrel being movable longitudinally within and with respect to the main barrel, the second barrel having a distal end which is engageable and disengageable with the apertured stopper; a shaft adapted to fit within the second barrel, the shaft being movable longitudinally within and with respect to the second barrel, the shaft having a distal end which is engageable and disengageable with an aperture in the second barrel; a device for controlling engaging and disengaging of the distal end of the shaft with the aperture of the second barrel. The first chamber, the second chamber and the third chamber may be selectively moved to receive and discharge fluids with respect to one another.
Method for preparing tissue, particularly adipose tissue, for transplantation from lobular fat extracted by liposuction
A method of preparing adipose tissue for transplantation, from lobular fat extracted, for instance, by liposuction, the fat including a fluid component that also includes an oily component, a blood component and/or sterile solutions and of a solid component that includes cell fragments, cells and one or more cell macroagglomerates of heterogeneous size, characterized in that it includes at least one step of forming an emulsion of the fluid component in the sterile washing solution by active and/or passive stirring and discharging the emulsion from the outlet through a density gradient.
INTEGRATED SYSTEM FOR MECHANICAL PROCESSING OF LIPOASPIRATE
An integrated lipoaspirate processing system is disclosed for mechanically processing adipose tissue into a therapeutic material that, in some embodiments, may be directly injected into a subject. The system includes an emulsification device that is used to emulsify the lipoaspirate sample. The emulsified lipoaspirate is then filtered by a microfluidic filtration device. The filtrate of the microfluidic filtration device is then processed in a microfluidic dissociation device. The integrated platform or system helps standardize hydrodynamic processing of lipoaspirate by producing predictable and consistent shear forces and enabling automation in clinical settings. Progressive processing through multiple devices in series enables optimal recovery of regenerative cells while preventing clogging.
FAT SCREENING DEVICE
A fat screening device includes a cylinder, and a sieve basket. The cylinder includes a feed inlet, an air outlet, a bottom water outlet, and an accommodating space. The accommodating space is in communication with the feed inlet, the air outlet, and the bottom water outlet. The feed inlet is configured to receive a mixture, the bottom water outlet is disposed at a bottom of the cylinder, the accommodating space is configured to accommodate water and fat resulting from stratification of the mixture, and the bottom water outlet is configured to discharge the water. The sieve basket covers the feed inlet and is arranged separately from the air outlet. The sieve basket is configured to screen the mixture to discharge the water and the fat into the accommodating space.
Method to divide liposuction fat into aliquots to be used and cryopreserved
A method to divide liposuction fat into aliquots for use and cryopreservation purposes, the method comprising: providing a taking container that contains adipose material removed by liposuction, the adipose material including fat and aqueous fluid; providing a plurality of cryopreservation containers; taking a quantity of the adipose material from the taking container, keeping the quantity of the adipose material isolated from an external environment; separating by gravity the fat from the aqueous fluid in the adipose material of the taken quantity; and transferring the separated fat into one or more cryopreservation containers, to define isolated aliquots of fat.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL DEVICE CONTROL
Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure assist with management of tubes and hoses during surgical procedures. The systems, devices, and methods provide for the proper opening and closing of tubes to facilitate performance of steps in a surgical procedure. Systems, devices, and methods of the present disclosure control fluid delivery to and from a medical device, including devices for tissue processing and cleaning.
