Technical Field

[0002] Exosomes refer to small membrane vesicles (30-150nm) containing complex RNA and proteins. Nowadays, they specifically refer to disc-shaped vesicles with a diameter of 40-100nm. A variety of cells can secrete exosomes under normal and pathological conditions. They are mainly derived from multivesicular bodies formed by the invagination of intracellular lysosomal microparticles, and are released into the extracellular matrix after the fusion of the multivesicular body membrane with the cell membrane.

[0003] There are some problems with today's stem cell exosome storage devices. First, because exosomes can resist dissolution by non-ionic detergents at low temperatures and protect the contents from degradation, exosome operations should be performed as much as possible in a low-temperature environment and the number of repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be reduced. Traditional stem cell exosome storage technology uses multiple test tubes to store and take out at the same time. In the process of taking a test tube, all test tubes need to be exposed to room temperature, which reduces the storage effect of stem cells.

[0004] To this end, we propose a stem cell exosome preservation device. Utility Model Content
