14. A cell processing system, comprising:
-
a mixture comprising a density gradient solution, a washing solution, and a bone marrow extract;
a first syringe coupled to a secondary syringe of a processing set;
a filter coupled to the first syringe and the second syringe;
a washing solution;means for drawing the mixture into the first syringe configured to separate mononuclear cells from a bone marrow extract; means for spinning the first syringe to separate the mixture into a layer of mononuclear cells and a layer of waste fluid; means for passing the layer of mononuclear cells through the filter coupled to the first syringe and the second syringe to collect the mononuclear cells in the filter; means for drawing the washing solution through the filter and into the second syringe to wash out the mononuclear cells for collection of the mononuclear cells in the second syringe. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
