About the AXP® II SystemThe AXP® II System is a proprietary, automated system for the isolation, collection and storage of hematopoietic stem cell concentrates from cord blood.Its functionality:
- automates the volume reduction process,
- provides consistent buffy coat concentration volumes,
- ensures high recoveries of mononuclear cells in a targeted volume, and
- allows for simultaneously processing of multiple cord blood units in one centrifuge.
About the PXP® System The PXP® laboratory equipment allows for the rapid, automated processing of autologous bone marrow-derived stem cells at the point of care, such as in surgical centers and clinics. It affords:
- consistently high recovery of MSCs and HSCs
- greater than 99% RBC depletion
- automation of the volume reduction process,
- the simultaneous processing of multiple bone marrow units, and
- the processing of bone marrow without cell separation media or a sedimentation agent.
