The vial includes a particulate material, a septum, a neck region including a first width, and a particulate region including a second width greater than the first width. The vial assembly is configured to move to a locked position. The needle may be configured to puncture the septum with the at least one port configured to be in the neck region when in the locked position. The at least one port may be configured to inject a fluid into the vial assembly to mix with the particulate material upon actuation of a vial engagement mechanism in a first direction and to receive a resulting mixed fluid from the vial assembly upon actuation of the vial engagement mechanism in a second direction opposite the first direction.
