Prepackaged collections of the devices and supplies needed to process a split-thickness skin sample using enzymatic and mechanical disaggregation to generate a cell suspension. Items in these kits may include a processing unit with heating mechanism, enzyme and buffer solutions, and various needles and syringes. The kit may also include a spray nozzle for application. The kits are frequently supplied in supporting trays (i.e., procedure trays) consisting of a flat-bottomed receptacle with a border around the periphery supporting all the instruments and supplies needed for the procedure; the trays are usually covered or wrapped. These kits are intended to produce autologous skin cell suspension used for autografting for treating conditions such as burns and chronic wounds, and for use in aesthetic procedures.
