Abstract
A system for forming fibrin foam, preferably utilizing a single container, comprising a cartridge structured to be rotationally driven and including a primary chamber disposed and structured to receive a blood sample therein. The cartridge further includes reaction and cell chambers independently disposed in fluid communication with said primary chamber. The blood sample is separated into a plasma segment and a packed cell segment when subjected to sufficient centrifugation concurrent to the driven rotation of the cartridge. Concurrent to the centrifugation of the canister, the plasma segment is directed from said primary chamber into said reaction chamber and the packed cell segment is directed from an interior of said primary chamber to an exterior thereof, such as into the cell chamber. The reaction chamber includes sufficient quantities of gas and reactant composition to facilitate formation of fibrin foam therein concurrent to centrifugation.
