Extraction of Stromal Vascular Fraction and Stem Cells From Fat Tissue
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Soft Tissue Mass Removal
In brief
Human Adipose Tissue is considered as a new source for Stromal Stem Cells and offers a large therapeutic potential for many rare and common diseases that impacts millions of patients worldwide. The Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) of Adipose Tissue is relatively easy to extract with minimally invasive procedures such as elective liposuction in large quantities and therefore may be a cost effective source for cellular therapies in a wide range of medical specialties. In this study we aim to demonstrate the efficacy of Antria Cell Preparation Process© in obtaining human adipose derived Stromal Vascular Fraction (SVF) by performing histology, various cell counts, multiple surface marker tests and measurement of the residual amount of digestive enzymes as a safety measure for human clinical trials.
