An autologous cell concentrating system and method are disclosed. The system has a blood separation component, a first vessel, a second vessel, a first valve, a second valve, and a concentration and flow logic and control component. The concentration and flow logic and control component is configured to: determine a first volume of a target cell-poor fraction in the first vessel to mix with a target cell-rich fraction in the second vessel in order to form a target cell-rich concentrate having a concentration of target cells that is within a target concentration range; and control the second valve to transfer the first volume of the target cell-rich fraction from the first vessel to the second vessel to form the target cell-rich concentrate. The target concentration range is between 1.0 and 1.5×10target platelets/μL.

Systems and methods for autologous biological therapeutics

Methods of analyzing a biological fluid to determine an expected therapeutic benefit of the fluid include determining amounts of components within the biological fluid. Comparisons of a first component of the biological fluid relative to another component of the biological are made to characterize a therapeutic effect of the biological fluid.

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatuses for forming concentrates of platelet-rich plasma or bone marrow cells having user-defined concentrations, concentration ranges, and/or volumes. Whole blood or bone marrow samples can be passed through one or two separation operations in which platelets or bone marrow cells are separated from red blood cells and concentrated in a plasma. During this separation and concentrating, a total number of platelets or bone marrow cells or a concentration of either is determined and then used to ascertain what volumes and concentrations need be mixed in order to produce a platelet-rich plasma concentrate or a bone marrow-rich plasma concentrate having a target concentration and/or volume.
