TWO-COMPONENT SYRINGE
A method for mixing a first substance of a first chamber of a syringe and a second substance of a second chamber of the syringe, wherein communication of the first chamber and the second chamber is blocked by a removable member, the method including positioning the first chamber at an elevation higher than the second chamber; removing the removable member to enable communication of the first substance with the second substance to form a mixture; positioning the second chamber at an elevation higher than the first chamber; and replacing the removable member to confine the mixture in the first chamber.
1 . A method for mixing a first substance of a first chamber of a syringe and a second substance of a second chamber of the syringe, wherein communication of said first chamber and said second chamber is blocked by a removable member, said method comprising:
(a) positioning the first chamber at an elevation higher than the second chamber;
(b) removing said removable member to enable communication of the first substance with the second substance to form a mixture;
(c) positioning the second chamber at an elevation higher than the first chamber; and
(d) replacing the removable member to confine said mixture in said first chamber.
2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising a step of agitating said mixture between said step (b) and said step (c).
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first substance comprises a liquid and the second substance comprises a solid.
4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said removing step further comprises an action applied along a first axis and said replacing step further comprises an action applied along a second axis and said first axis is disposed coaxially with said second axis.
5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein said first chamber comprises a first hollow cylinder having a first diameter, said second chamber comprises a second hollow cylinder having a second diameter greater than said first diameter.
6 . A method for mixing a first substance of a first chamber of a syringe and a second substance of a second chamber of the syringe, wherein communication of said first chamber and said second chamber is blocked by a removable member, said method comprising:
(a) positioning the first chamber at an elevation higher than the second chamber;
(b) removing said removable member to enable communication of the first substance with the second substance to form a mixture;
(c) agitating said mixture;
(d) positioning the second chamber at an elevation higher than the first chamber; and
(e) replacing the removable member to confine said mixture in said first chamber.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first substance comprises a liquid and the second substance comprises a solid.
8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein said removing step further comprises an action applied along a first axis and said replacing step further comprises an action applied along a second axis and said first axis is disposed coaxially with said second axis.
9 . The method of claim 6 , wherein said first chamber comprises a first hollow cylinder having a first diameter, said second chamber comprises a second hollow cylinder having a second diameter greater than said first diameter.
