Zusammenfassung:The present invention is directed to a method for lining a biological vascular conduit with cells. The method utilizes a suitable biologic tube conduit with luminal characteristics that simulate exposed basement membrane to allow for cell attachment. The biologic conduit is secured within a seeding chamber. Cells are introduced into the conduit. Pressure is applied to the seeding chamber such that each end receives substantially equal pressure.
