Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for holding and carrying a plurality of flexible medical containers. The carrier has a rack having a plurality of plates positioned in parallel spaced relation, the plates defining a chamber between each pair of adjacent plates. A plurality of spacer assemblies each extend through the rack to connect the plates and to maintain their spaced relationship. The spacer assemblies are spaced along marginal edges of the rack to define two opposed end walls, a bottom, and an opening to the rack to allow access to each of the chambers. A flange extends from one of the plates and has a hole that allows the carrier to be suspended. The invention further provides for a system for transferring fluids and a method for mixing solutions using the carrier.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for holding and carrying a plurality of flexible medical containers (15). The carrier has a rack (10) having a plurality of plates (12) positioned in parallel spaced relation, the plates (12) defining a chamber between each pair of adjacent plates (12). A plurality of spacer assemblies (18) each extend through the rack (10) to connect the plates (12) and to maintain their spaced relationship. The spacer assemblies (18) are spaced along marginal edges of the rack (10) to define two opposed end walls (20), a bottom (22), and an opening (24) to the rack to allow access to each of the chambers. A flange (25) extends from one of the plates (12) and has a hole (27) that allows the carrier to be suspended. The invention further provides for a system for transferring fluids and a method for mixing solutions using the carrier.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of preparing from hematopoietic cells a population of cells enriched for erythroid progenitor cells (BFU-E) in which up to 100% of the colony-forming units are BFU-E. The method entails separating hematopoietic progenitor cells on the basis of binding to a specific cell surface antigen such as CD34, and separation of erythroid progenitor cells based on binding to a lectin such as Ulex europaeus agglutinin. After separation of the erythroid progenitors, the lectin may be eluted off the cells by incubation with excess sugar, such as fucose, which competes for the cell-binding site on the lectin. The invention also provides a method of treatment for human patients having an erythroid disorder via administration of a cell population enriched for human erythroid progenitor cells. Also provided are diagnostic methods based on the enriched cell population.
