Abstract: The present invention provides a fluid exchange cell culture technique an d tissue repair cells (TRCs) made by these methods, as well as methods using these cells. The method includes a new wash step which increases the tissue repair properties of the TRCs of the invention. This wash step allows for t he production of TRC populations with greater tissue repair and anti- inflam matory capabilities. Embodiments of the present invention include a post-cul ture process for cultured cells that preferably includes the steps of: a was h process for removing unwanted residual culture components, a volume reduct ion process, and a harvesting process to remove cultured cells. Preferably, all these steps are performed within a aseptically closed cell culture chamb er by implementing a separation method that minimizes mechanical disruption of the cells and is simple to automate. The harvested cells may then be conc entrated to a final volume for the intended use. In such embodiments, the fi nal composition is a substantially purified and concentrated cell mixture su spended in a physiologic solution suitable for immediate use in humans witho ut further washing, volume reduction, or processing. Embodiments are also ap plicable to harvesting (and/or washing) particles within a liquid or solutio n within a chamber.
