Abstract:
This disclosure is directed to an apparatus, system and method for retrieving a target material from a suspension. A system includes a displacement fluid, a collector, and a primary vessel. In another implementation, the system includes a processing vessel, a displacement fluid, a collector, and a primary vessel.

Claim (Index 11):
A method comprising the steps of:\n providing a primary vessel comprising an open end and a suspension comprising a target material; inserting a collector into the open end of a primary vessel, the collector comprising:\n a main body comprising a first end comprising a cavity and second end comprising an opening, and \n a septum extending from an apex of the opening to the cavity, \n wherein at least the second end of the collector is located within the open end of the primary vessel, and \n wherein the collector extends upwardly from the primary vessel; \n inserting a processing vessel into the collector, the processing vessel comprising\n an inner chamber between a first end and a second end, \n a cannula extending away from the second end and providing fluid communication with the inner chamber; and \n a displacement fluid within the inner chamber, the displacement fluid having a density greater than the density of at least a portion of the target material; and \n centrifuging the primary vessel, the collector, and the displacement fluid, wherein the displacement fluid flows into the primary vessel via the cannula and displaces the at least one portion of the target material from the primary vessel into the cavity of the collector via the cannula, wherein inserting the cannula of the processing vessel through the septum provides fluid communication between the inner chamber of the processing vessel and the opening of the collector.
