Overview

Advanced Technology for Cell Separation  

The PXP®-1000 System is designed to provide a fast, automated, and reproducible separation of cord blood with minimal red blood cell contamination in a closed and sterile environment. 

Powerful, Efficient, and User Friendly

The PXP-1000 System is used for processing and separating buffy coat from collected units of cord blood. Buffy coat is a cell fraction of cord blood that includes most of the leukocytes, stem and progenitor cells, nucleated red cells, some plasma, some erythrocytes and most of the platelets. The separation process takes place in a commercially-available, programmable centrifuge. During high-speed centrifugation cord blood is stratified into three components: buffy coat, red blood cells (RBCs), and plasma. After stratification and during the low-speed centrifugation, RBCs are depleted into the depletion chamber and buffy coat is harvested into the harvest chamber compartment of the PXP-1000 Disposable Cartridge.
