Abstract
A tissue sample processing system and associated methods is disclosed and described. The tissue sample processing system () can include a microfluidic separating system (). The microfluidic separating system () can include a fluid channel to receive a carrier fluid () and a tissue sample (), and a plurality of outlets. Flow of the carrier fluid () and the tissue sample () in the fluid channel can facilitate segregation of materials in the tissue sample () based on size into a plurality of size fractions, such that each one of the plurality of outlets receives a different size fraction of the materials in the tissue sample. In addition, the sample processing system () can comprise a cryopreservation system () associated with at least one of the plurality of outlets to freeze the material in the tissue sample () associated with the at least one of the plurality of outlets.
