20150306288 | METHOD FOR PRESERVING PLACENTAL BLOOD - A method for preserving whole placental blood comprising introducing whole placental blood into an air barrier storage bag, storing said bag containing whole placental blood at a temperature of more than 0° C. and less than 40° C., so as to preserve the whole placental blood. | 10-29-2015 |
20140291227 | LEUKOCYTE FILTRATION UNIT WITH REDUCED PLATELET ADHESION - A filtration unit to selectively remove leukocytes from fluids containing platelets and systems including a filtration unit are provided. In one embodiment, a filtration unit is provided including an outer casing enclosing a porous element which includes a leukocyte-removal medium with a coating. The coating includes a polymer containing a main hydrophobic chain and a hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) side chain and having a mass average molar mass in the range of from about 1,000 g/mol to about 20,000 g/mol. The hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) side chain includes from 9 to 50 ethylene oxide units, and the mass percentage of the poly(ethylene oxide) side chain is less than about 50% of the mass average molar mass of the polymer. | 10-02-2014 |
20140144800 | KIT FOR PRESERVING A BIOLOGICAL PRODUCT INCLUDING A THREE-DIMENSIONAL BAG AND A MATCHING THREE-DIMENSIONAL CASING - The invention relates to a kit for preserving a biological product including a three-dimensional bag ( | 05-29-2014 |
20130256576 | DEVICE INTENDED TO BREAK AT LEAST ONE CLOSURE ELEMENT LOCATED INSIDE A FLEXIBLE TUBE - The invention relates to a device intended to break at least one closure element located inside a flexible tube, said closure element having a first part and a second part, said parts being separated by a weakening zone, it being possible to break said weakening zone in order to enable fluid to flow inside said flexible tube, said device comprising an assembly for holding said flexible tube, said assembly comprising a fixed element provided with a first housing intended to hold a first portion of said flexible tube, and a mobile element provided with a second housing intended to hold a second portion of said flexible tube, the two housings being aligned along a center line defining a neutral position of the mobile element, said device comprising a member for moving the mobile element to either side of its neutral position so as to be able to break the weakening zone of the closure element. | 10-03-2013 |
20120264210 | Method for Expanding and/or Preserving Cells by Means of Gas Enrichment of the Culture Medium - A method for expanding and/or preserving cells inside a culture vessel containing a culture medium provides for the renewal of the culture medium by a culture medium stream, at least a portion of which comes from a culture medium volume contained in a gas-enrichment vessel of the culture medium, the enrichment-vessel further containing a gas volume which is separated from the culture medium volume by a free interface, the gas volume being renewed by a gas stream that is introduced into the enrichment vessel directly into the gas volume, the flow of the stream being arranged so as to enable a gas exchange between the culture medium volume and the gas volume at the interface thereof. | 10-18-2012 |
20120003187 | BIOLOGICAL MEDIUM FOR PRESERVING A PREPARATION OF INSULIN-SECRETING CELLS - A method for preserving a preparation of insulin-secreting cells includes the step of placing the preparation of insulin-secreting cells in contact with a biological medium, the biological medium including a nutritive product including albumin, and further includes a peptone or a mixture of peptones in sufficient quantity to preserve the insulin-secreting cells. | 01-05-2012 |
20100108596 | BIOLOGICAL FLUID FILTRATION UNIT PROVIDED WITH AN OFFSET INLET AND/OR OUTLET MEMBER - A filtration unit intended to allow the selective elimination of target substances from a fluid such as flood or a blood component, has an outer envelope formed from two flexible sheets joined together over their periphery along a bond line so as to define an inner volume, the envelope containing a filtering medium which delimits, on both sides of the bond line, an inlet compartment of the fluid to be filtered and an outlet compartment of the filtrate, each of the compartments being provided with an element—respectively an inlet and outlet element—for bringing the compartment into communication with the outside, the elements being connected between the sheets and comprising a flow channel that passes through the bond line, the unit being characterized in that at least one channel is offset relative to the bond line towards the compartment with which the channel is in communication. | 05-06-2010 |
20090286315 | PROCESS FOR PRESERVING INSULIN-SECRETING CELLS INTENDED TO BE TRANSPLANTED IN A PATIENT - Process for preserving insulin secreting cells intended to be transplanted, including the following steps: introducing an initial volume of culture medium and insulin-secreting cells into a culture container, providing a culture medium source, and replacing, at time intervals below 8 hours, the culture medium in the culture container with culture medium from the source so as to renew the culture medium contained in the container. | 11-19-2009 |
