Filed: 2008-06-20
Granted: 2012-08-09
Abstract: P:\WPDOCS\CRN\XJ\Spc\20408581 abstact doc- 1/06/2008 The present invention provides adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), adipose-derived stem cell-enriched fractions (ADSC-EF) and adipose-derived lattices, alone and combined with the 5 ADSCs of the invention. In one aspect, the present invention provides an ADSC substantially free of adipocytes and red blood cells and clonal populations of connective tissue stem cells. The ADSCs can be employed, alone or within biologically-compatible compositions, to generate differentiated tissues and structures, both in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, the ADSCs can be expanded and cultured to produce molecules such as hormones, and to provide 10 conditioned culture media for supporting the growth and expansion of other cell populations. In another aspect, the present invention provides a adipose-derived lattice substantially devoid of cells, which includes extracellular matrix material from adipose tissue. The lattice can be used as a substrate to facilitate the growth and differentiation of cells, whether in vivo or in vitro, into anlagen or even mature tissues or structures.

Title: Film peeling method
Inventor: TILLMANN MICHAEL
IPC: B26D7/01
Filed: 2010-05-06
Granted: 2013-07-18
Abstract: According to the method, in an initial peeling phase (AP), the block of material (10) is spirally peeled. Subsequently, there is a transitional phase (UP) of a fraction of a revolution in order to change over to the desired layer thickness. In the following peeling phase (SP), the same spiral pitch is used as in the initial stripping phase. During each revolution of the block of material, the blade is lowered to an increased depth into the block of material in a limited angular range (22) and, subsequently, the revolution is completed with the pitch of the initial peeling phase. Advantages are obtained by the desired layer thickness being achieved within fractions of a revolution. The method can be carried out with little time being spent and low material wastage.
