We have noticed that some patients' cells freeze and thaw easily and those patients get good clinical response to frozen cells. There is a group who do not respond well to frozen cells. In the vet world we see some bulls whose semen will not freeze. Is this the same for human SVF cells?
The number of cells varies greatly from one patient to the next but we do approach that by increasing the number of vials to match the cell numbers and not exceed our density limit. The same technicians do all the freezing. It is still possible that they are changing something without realizing. We are in the process of harvesting fresh fat and repeating the process for those patients who do not freeze well.
Hallo Ralph, do all patients take the same drugs? Could you please pass me the publication referring to the bull's semen? Thanks.
The observation f or the bull semen comes from personal observation in the industry. I am not sure if it has been published but testing before full scale harvesting is widespread practice.
Since this time I have observed patients who have responded well to a fresh treatment, nothing from a thaw and then nothing from another fresh treatment.. It may not be a problem that relates to individuals freezing abilities. It may simply reflect the fact that we get all the improvement possible for that patient with one treatment.
