Harvesting bone marrow is now fast and easy with the power-driven Bio-MAC® Bone Marrow Aspiration Cannula from Biologic Therapies.

Available in 25mm, 45mm, 60mm, 80mm and 105mm lengths, the Bio-MAC’s varying lengths allow for bone marrow draws throughout the anatomy. In addition to the iliac crest, the proximal tibia, proximal humerus and calcaneus are now viable sites for easy bone marrow aspiration.

The Bio-MAC Bone Marrow Aspiration Cannula provides a safe, fast and efficient means of bone marrow harvest for providers of point-of-care Regenerative Cell Therapy. This therapy has been proven to be a highly effective treatment for bone, muscle, tendon, ligament and cartilage injuries. Plus, bone marrow is an excellent source for the cells and growth factors that are responsible for the healing and tissue regeneration process.

The Bio-MAC’s cannula contains eight large, smooth, bevel-edged fenestrations, which allow for gentle bone marrow aspiration. The Bio-MAC’s unique design also incorporates a proprietary plunger component that when inserted down the cannula creates a void (frac) where bone marrow pools. Together, the fenestrations and plunger-created void provide an approximately 120% greater draw area resulting in higher aspiration efficiency and an easier draw when compared to other.

The Magellan® technology provides an automated dual spin processing system that can deliver (PRP) Platelet Rich Plasma as well as (PPP) Platelet Poor Plasma

Platelets release various growth factors:

• PDGF- Platelet Derived Growth Factor (Cell growth, new generation and repair of blood vessels, collagen production)
• TGF-B (Growth and neogenesis of epithelial cells and vascular endothelial cells, promotion of wound healing)
• VEGF (Growth and generation of vascular endothelial cells)
• FGF-Fibroblast Growth Factor (Tissue repair, cell growth, collagen production, hyaluronic acid production)
• EGF-Epithelial Growth Factor (Promotion of epithelial cell growth, angiogenesis, promotion of wound healing)

The Magellan® Platelet Separator is unique in its ability to customize the PRP product. The system can be programmed to deliver a volume of 3-10ml for each processing cycle. This allows you to customize the PRP concentration from each processing cycle. This also allows you to customize the concentration per ml within PRP. Magellan is approved for three processing cycles per disposable, allowing for maximum of 30 ml of product

60ml of blood processed to 6mL delivers a platelet concentration of 7.2 times baseline (see customization graph above). It is important to determine the volume needed for each application and then process the appropriate volume of blood to keep the platelet concentration at therapeutic levels.
