A millifluidic device for cultures of biological agents includes a main body having a first hole closed at the bottom, a separator a membrane fixed to the separator, and a plug closing the first hole. The separator is designed to be placed in the first hole and is extractable from the first hole. The membrane divides the first hole into an upper half-chamber and a lower half-chamber. A pair of tubes perfuse the lower half-chamber and another pair of tubes perfuse the upper half-chamber. A first slide is placed centrally on the plug and a second slide is placed centrally on the first hole. A cylindrical body rises from the first hole and the second slide is placed on the top of the cylindrical body. The cylindrical body has a second hole, coaxial to the cylindrical body.

Millifluidic device for advanced cultures of biological agents

A device for cell culture comprising: a main body (); said main body () comprises a plurality of circular portions (-); said device comprises a plurality of caps (-); each of said plurality of caps (-) comprises a base structure () having a circular hole (), housing an upper slide () and an elastomeric layer () secured to said slide (); said elastomeric layer () has a rectangular hole (); said plurality of caps (-) being adapted to cooperate with said plurality of circular portions (-); each of said plurality of circular portions (-) each comprise an inlet hole (-) and an outlet hole (-) aligned with the long side of said rectangular hole (), to perfuse the culture chamber (-) located in said rectangular hole () of said elastomeric layer ().

Device for cell culture

A safety needle having a rigid outer structure within which there is a cannula holding element of being movably coupled to an injector pen for a drug is provided. The cannula holding element supports a cannula having a first extremity and a second extremity for administration of the drug. A moving protective element associated with the rigid structure, covers the second extremity of the cannula after administration, with provision being made for a deforming member capable of deforming the cannula after administration of the drug so that the second extremity of the cannula remains within the protective element. The deforming member is associated with the protective element and is capable of rotating autonomously with respect thereto after administration of the drug to deform the cannula.

Safety needle with deformable cannula for injector pen

A medical device for percutaneous or venous access for the purposes of administering a fluid to a patient or sampling from one is disclosed. The device includes a cannula holder that has a part or portion of cross-section which is reduced or different from its distal end and proximal end. The part or portion of reduced or different cross-section allows the cannula holder to deform within the body of the device when activating means are activated to separate the cannula holder from an immobilising member allowing the cannula holder to move in the body of the device and re-enter and disappear within such body of the cannula.
