The Cartilage Biopsy Transport Kit, developed by Vericel Corporation, provides a way for surgeons to preserve a live cartilage biopsy and return it to the Vericel Cambridge Manufacturing Facility for the production of MACI - (Container, specimen mailer and storage, temperature controlled, sterile)
A non-sterile tube, box, or envelope designed to transport a specimen container/receptacle by mail and to provide protection and insulation for the container and its specimen content. It can be used for mail services internal or external to healthcare facilities. It includes insulation intended to provide a thermal barrier between the specimen and the environment to preserve temperature-sensitive samples. The device is also intended to protect the specimen container (e.g., glass vial, bottle, tube, or slide) from adverse conditions that could cause breakage. This is a single-use device.
