| 20100305000 | METHOD AND USE OF MICROARRAY TECHNOLOGY AND PROTEOGENOMIC ANALYSIS TO PREDICT EFFICACY OF HUMAN AND XENOGRAPHIC CELL, TISSUE AND ORGAN TRANSPLANT - The present invention is directed to systems and proteogenomic methods for predicting the success of the transplant of a cell, tissue, or organ by providing a means to determine the quality of the cell, tissue, or organ to be transplanted. In one embodiment, the present invention uses samples from the preservation solution to obtain phenomic fingerprints correlated with transplant pre-operative and post-operative data as a pre-operative tissue diagnostic and procedural success predictive indicator. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20110152719 | MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR HYPOTHERMIC COLLECTION OF WHOLE BLOOD - The present invention relates to materials and methods for hypothermic collection of whole blood, and components thereof, which can extend the holding time of blood beyond the current useable limit. Additionally, blood can be drawn directly into a hypothermic preservation solution without the addition of standard anticoagulants. This is enabled by providing sustained cellular viability under hypothermic conditions using a nutrient matrix devoid of animal proteins and containing energy substrates, free-radical scavengers, and impermeants that is ionically balanced for storage of biologic materials at low temperatures to prevent cellular stress-induced apoptosis. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20120040450 | APPARATUSES AND COMPOSITIONS FOR CRYOPRESERVATION OF CELLULAR MONOLAYERS - Provided are apparatuses for cryopreserving cells which include a vessel comprising a biocompatible substrate, wherein the vessel further comprises an interior and an exterior, and a mechanical ice nucleating device disposed in or on the vessel interior for initiating ice crystal formation. Also provided are kits comprising one or more apparatuses for cryopreserving cells and a biopreservation medium. Further provided are compositions comprising a vessel for holding cells, a mechanical ice nucleating device, a biopreservation medium, and cells disposed in the vessel. The apparatuses, kits, and compositions of the invention can optionally include an insulating material which is disposed on all or a portion of the vessel. | 02-16-2012 |
