Abstract
Abstract A system for collecting and processing donated bone marrow comprises a closed and/or sealable collection container and a closed and/or sealable satellite container. The system may also include at least one porous medium interposed between the collection container and the satellite container. The porous medium is a size gradient depletion media. The system may also include at least one third container in fluid communication with the collection container. The system may also include at least one manifold interposed in the fluid flow path between the collection container and the third container.
