Abstract:
1. A device for separating tissue particles, wherein the device comprises: (a) a first reservoir configured to receive tissue particles in a fluid; (b) an ultrasonic transducer in communication with the first reservoir, wherein the ultrasonic transducer is operable to emit ultrasonic energy toward tissue particles in the first reservoir; (c) control circuitry in communication with the ultrasonic transducer, wherein the control circuitry is configured to drive the ultrasonic transducer at parameters selected to provide movement of tissue particles in the first reservoir based on the size of the tissue particles, and (d) a screen, wherein the screen is configured to separate tissue particles from fluid, wherein the screen is electrically driven, wherein the control circuitry is operable to selectively activate the electrically driven screen to separate tissue particles from fluid.
