1. A method, comprising:

  • (1) providing an automated system for separating and concentrating regenerative cells from tissue, the automated system comprising;

    a. a chamber assembly to receive tissue removed from a patient, wherein the chamber assembly facilitates disaggregation of the tissue such that regenerative cells are separated from the tissue;

    b. a concentrating device which can connect to the chamber assembly, wherein the concentrating device concentrates regenerative cells from the disaggregated tissue present in the chamber assembly; and

    c. a programmable processing device capable of communicating with and controlling the chamber assembly and the concentrating device;

    (2) providing a device, comprising;

    a. a cell carrier portion; and

    b. a cell carrier containment portion; and

    (3) adding the regenerative cells separated and concentrated by the automated system to the cell carrier portion of the device.
