Provided are a method for producing a platelet lysate, a production system, and a bag set capable of efficiently producing a platelet lysate with a simple device structure. According to the method for producing a platelet lysate, by which a platelet lysate (PL) that contains a growth factor contained in platelet is produced, buffy coat is collected from whole blood; the buffy coat (BC) is centrifuged to extract a supernatant, thereby collecting a platelet concentrate from which leukocyte has been removed; and, prior to freezing, the platelet concentrate is centrifuged to remove the supernatant, thereby preparing a highly concentrated platelet concentrate. The highly concentrated platelet concentrate is then frozen and thawed, and further centrifuged to recover the platelet lysate.

Methods and container systems for processing biological fluids are disclosed. The container systems include an inner container within an outer container. The inner container wall is made of a porous material of a selected porosity that allows certain components to pass through said porous wall but retains other components. A treating solution is introduced into the chamber of the outer container.

The present invention involves a fill needle system for aseptically dispensing a pharmaceutical fluid in an aseptic chamber comprises a fill needle tubing in fluid communication with a pharmaceutical fluid source via flexible tubing and extending through a fill needle hub; a fill needle dispensing tip disposed at a dispensing end of the fill needle tubing; a fill needle sheath shaped and arranged to removably mate with and seal aseptically to the fill needle hub to form an aseptically sealed volume enclosing the dispensing tip; and a fluid pressure pulse induction system disposed and configured to compress the flexible tubing in order to dislodge droplets of pharmaceutical fluid retained on the dispensing tip after halting dispensing of the pharmaceutical fluid. An associated method of dispensing pharmaceutical fluid comprises operating the fluid pressure pulse induction system to dislodge the droplets. The system may comprise a controller for automatically controlling the dispensing and droplet dislodging.

A container is disclosed for isolating living cells. The container for crushing a sample by pressing includes a container main body having an opening part and a partition which separates an upper space and a lower space of the container main body, in which at least a part of the partition has a portion which is not horizontal with respect to the bottom of the container.

An intradermal fluid delivery device that uses a processor controlled electromechanical delivery mechanism is provided. An air pump pushes fluid containing medication or saline from a fluid compartment through a microneedle array into a person's skin. The processor repeatedly turns the air pump on or off, for the fluid to gradually be injected into the person's skin. The processor may be configured to control the total fluid delivery time as well as the granularity of the fluid delivery. The total fluid delivery time may be set to T, and the time period T may be divided into smaller periods t.sub.1 to t.sub.n, where the fluid may be administered in a period t1, the fluid delivery may then be stopped for a period t2, followed by another fluid delivery period, etc. The periods t1 to tn may be the same or of different lengths.

An intravenous (IV) fluid delivery system include an IV bag and a fluid delivery device. The IV bag is made of many fluidic channels that keep the fluid distributed across the bag such that the bag may be easily and comfortably wrapped around the arm and shoulder of a person. The fluid delivery device includes a processor controlled electromechanical delivery mechanism that controls a positive displacement pump. The pump moves the fluid into a tube and a needle that is connected to a person's vein. The processor repeatedly turns the pump on or off to gradually transfer the fluid from the IV bag into the person's vein. The processor controls the granularity of the fluid delivery, where the fluid may be administered in a fluid delivery period, the fluid delivery may then be stopped in a subsequent fluid stoppage period, followed by other fluid delivery periods.
