AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Existing devices for compressing hydrogels are costly, time-consuming, prone to contamination, and risk damaging the graft due to the need for re-sterilization and potential cross-contamination.
Method used
A fully disposable system comprising a hydrogel receptacle assembly, piston assembly, and flask for compressing and incubating hydrogels, made of lightweight, biocompatible materials, ensuring sterility and reducing the need for re-sterilization.
Benefits of technology
The system reduces costs, minimizes contamination risk, and enhances production output by eliminating the need for re-sterilization and cross-contamination, while maintaining the integrity of the hydrogel graft.
