Provisional Application filed on December 19, 1997 by Roby et al. having U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 60/068,273 , the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. BACKGROUND 1. Technical Field The disclosure relates generally to an assembly for mixing and dispensing one component of a tissue sealant based on human or animal proteins and, more particularly, to an assembly for forming a protein solution to be applied to tissues or organs together with another protein solution to form a fibrin sealant for sealing wounds, stopping bleeding and the like. 2. Description of Related Art A fibrin sealant is a biological adhesive formed by mixing two protein components, namely, fibrinogen and thrombin. Each protein component is derived from human plasma and is subjected to virus elimination procedures. The components are typically individually dehydrated and stored in separate vials as sterile freeze-dried powders. It is known that purified fibrinogen and thrombin, together with a variety of known adjuvants, can be combined in vitro to produce a polymer having great potential benefit, both as a hemostatic agent and as a tissue adhesive. Because of the rapid polymerization upon intimate interaction of fibrinogen and thrombin, it is important to maintain these two blood proteins separate until applied at the application site. These protein solutions are generally mixed and dispensed by devices such as a dual syringe apparatus. One dual syringe apparatus for applying a fibrinogen-based tissue adhesive is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,359,049 to Redl et al. Redl et al. disclose a mechanism in which two standardized one-way syringes are held in a support having a common actuating means. The dispensing end of each syringe is inserted into a collection manifold where the two components are mixed. The components are then dispensed through a common needle capable of covering a limited area of the application site. Typical devices for mixing and dispensing solutions of fibrinogen and thrombin require the addition of these proteins in powdered form to the body of the syringe. This makes the proteins susceptible to contamination by impurities which may enter the syringe body. Further still, the use of the syringe body to mix the proteins with water to create the protein solutions can cause the solutions to leak out from either the dispensing end of each syringe or the proximal end of the syringe body. A dual syringe apparatus for the application of fibrinogen and thrombin solutions to an application site generally contains several parts, such as a syringe plunger, a \"Y\" manifold connector, a dispensing needle, a syringe holder, syringe needles, and conduits for transporting the solutions to the dispensing needle. Therefore, fibrin sealant applicators, such as disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 4,359,049 to Redl et al. discussed above, and in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,874,368 to Miller et al. and 4,979,942 to Wolf et al. are difficult to reuse. The replenishment of the protein components typically requires removing a clip which couples the syringe plunger, removing the syringe plunger, detaching the syringes from the \"Y\" connector, removing the syringes from the holder, inserting new syringes, affixing the syringes to the \"Y\" connector, adding fibrinogen to one syringe and thrombin to another syringe, adding sterile water to each syringe, replacing the syringe plunger, replacing the plunger clip, and mixing the solutions. In an application where time may be of the essence, such a lengthy replenishing process is impractical and cumbersome. SUMMARY A fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly is provided for mixing a first protein component with sterile water to form a first protein solution and for dispensing the first protein solution. The first protein solution forms a biological adhesive when intermixed with a second protein solution on an application site. The second protein solution is preferably mixed and dispensed by a similar fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly. The two fibrin mixture and dispenser assemblies can be housed within a single housing. The assembly includes a piercer and a first tubular extension having grooves for providing fluid communication between a reservoir and a mixing chamber or a vial. The reservoir is also in fluid communication with a dispensing needle through a second tubular extension. The reservoir is configured to contain water which is introduced to the mixing chamber. The mixing chamber is configured to contain the first protein component. The water mixes with the first protein component within the mixing chamber to form the first protein solution. The solution is transferred to the reservoir and is dispensed via the dispensing needle. The first and second components are preferably fibrinogen and thrombin which intermix either prior to or on the application site to form a fibrin sealant.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 , a fibrin mixer and dispenser assembly according to a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The assembly, designated generally by numeral 10, includes a longitudinal housing 12 having an elongated body portion 14 defining a longitudinal axis. A pair of flanges 56 and 58 extend perpendicular to elongated body portion 14. Elongated body portion 14 further includes apertures 13 and a bore 15 therethrough for placing a piercer 16 therein. The cross-sectional view of FIG. 3B illustrates the housing-piercer arrangement. The piercer 16 is connected to a first tubular extension 18 which is in fluid communication with water reservoir 20 via longitudinal grooves 22 along the surface of tubular extension 18. The longitudinal grooves 22 permit fluid to flow between the surface of tubular extension 18 and body portion 14 as illustrated by the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3C . The first tubular extension 18 further includes a bore 24 for receiving a spring-rod assembly 26. The spring-rod assembly 26 includes a spring 28 and a rod 30. A cap 32 is formed at a distal end of rod 30. The cap 32 includes apertures 34 and matingly engages cylindrical extension 36 on housing 12. Cylindrical extension 36 also includes apertures 38 which permit fluid to flow from the spring assembly 26 to and from body portion 14. Water reservoir 20 includes half-sections 20a and 20b which can be moved toward each other to compress water reservoir 20. Water reservoir 20 includes a spout 40 for inserting a liquid, preferably sterilized water, within reservoir 20. The spout 40 can be closed by a cap 42. A circular flange 43 extending outwardly from reservoir 20 can be grasped to aid in compressing water reservoir 20. Water reservoir 20 is in fluid communication with a second tubular extension 44 having a bore therethrough for receiving a dispensing needle 24 assembly 46 therein. The dispensing needle assembly 46 includes a dispensing needle 48 preferably made from a metallic alloy capable of being sterilized. The second tubular extension 44 includes a circular disc 50 extending perpendicular thereto and a radially enlarged proximal end 52 for connecting the tubular extension 44 to the reservoir 20 via cylindrical extension 54 on the distal end of reservoir 20. While the water reservoir 20 is shown as being oval, it is understood that other shapes that contribute to the ease of gripping the assembly may be used. The piercer 14 is cut at an angle at a proximal end to form a pointed tip 60 for piercing a protective seal 62 on vial 64. A cap 66 having a hole 68 is placed over the protective seal 64. In this embodiment, the vial 64 contains a biological component in powdered form, preferably either thrombin or fibrinogen. The vial 64 also serves as a mixing chamber for mixing the biological component with the water in reservoir 20 as further described below. It is contemplated that the vial 64 be manufactured from a transparent plastic for a user to be able to view the amount of solution and to determine if the solution has been sufficiently intermixed. Although one embodiment for the vial 64 is illustrated and described, it is to be understood that the vial 64 could be designed in a number of different formats, including, without limitation, syringes, bags or tubing. The assembly 10 further include a lower valve assembly 70 and an upper valve assembly 72. With reference to FIGS. 3 and 3D , lower valve assembly 70 includes the dispensing needle assembly 46 having dispensing needle 48, rod 74, and spring 76. Rod 74 includes a pointed tip 78 which is positioned within the second tubular extension 44 for preventing fluid flow as shown by the enlarged view of FIG. 3D . Spring 76 extends through rod 74. A distal end of spring 76 rests within a cylindrical extension 80 of dispensing needle 48. With reference to FIGS. 4 and 4B , upper valve assembly 72 includes piercer 16 and first tubular extension 18 forming a piercer-tubular extension assembly 17. The tubular extension 18 includes a conical proximal section 82. As shown in FiG. 4 , when vial 64 is secured to assembly 20, the piercer 16 contacts a bottom surface 84 of vial 64 forcing piercer-tubular extension assembly 17 to move distally. This action causes conical section 82 to also move distally thereby creating open path 86 from which fluid can flow into and out of vial 64 depending on the gravitational orientation of assembly 10, as shown by the enlarged view of FIG. 4B . Although the preferred embodiment has been described with a particular lower and upper valve assemblies, it is understood that other similar assemblies may be employed to achieve the same functions. It is contemplated that two fibrin mixer and dispenser assemblies are used; one for the fibrinogen solution and another for the thrombin solution. The two fibrin mixer and dispenser assemblies can be housed within a single housing 10 as shown by FIG. 9 . The two solutions can be individually dispensed via dispensing needle 48 of their respective assembly 10 directly onto an application site or to vials within a dual-dispensing applicator. The two solutions intermix on the application site to form a fibrin sealant. It is to be understood, however, that other biological fluids may be substituted, depending upon the choice of mixture that is to be dispensed. The applicator may be the type disclosed in U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 08/792,535 filed on January 31, 1997 . The operation of assembly 10 will now be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4-8 . As discussed above with reference to FIG. 4 , vial 64 is brought in proximity to piercer 16 such that protective seal 62 is pierced. This causes the piercer-extension assembly 17 to move distally as shown by the arrows in FIG. 4 . As assembly 17 moves distally, conical section 82 also moves distally to form open path 86. The open path 86 is best shown in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 4A . The vial 64 is supported on assembly 10 by piercer 16 and flange 56. The assembly is positioned upright to cause the first protein component to surround apertures 13 on housing 12. Water within water reservoir 20 is introduced into vial 64 by compressing water reservoir 20 using flanges 43 and 50 as shown by FIG. 5 . Compression of water reservoir 20 forces the water to flow along the grooves 22 on the surface of tubular extension 18, through path 82, through apertures 13 and into vial 64. The assembly 10 is then shaken to thoroughly intermix the protein component with the water to form a protein solution. During mixing it is preferred that the assembly 10 is turned upside-down to prevent inadequately mixed solution from flowing to the reservoir 20. With reference to FIG. 6 , the protein solution within vial 64 is transferred to water reservoir 20 by flowing through apertures 13, through path 82, along tubular extension 18 and into water reservoir 20. When the solution has been transferred to reservoir 20, the vial 64 is removed causing the piercer-tubular extension assembly 17 to move proximally thereby also causing conical section 82 to move proximally to close off path 86 as shown by FIG. 7 . With continued reference to FIG. 7 , the solution is dispensed via dispensing assembly 46 by compressing reservoir 20 by grasping flanges 43 and 50. Compression of reservoir 20 causes rod 74 to move distally creating open path 88. The solution thus flows through open path 88 as shown by the enlarged view of FIG. 8 and through dispensing needle 48. The operation of each fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly 10 housed within housing 90 of the embodiment illustrated by FIG. 9 operates substantially the same as discussed above to form a protein solution and to dispense the same via dispensing needle 48. One of the dispenser assemblies forms the fibrinogen solution and the other forms the thrombin solution. While the housing 90 of the assembly of FIG. 9 is shown as being oval, it is understood that other shapes that contribute to the ease of operating each fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly 10 housed within housing 90 may be used. An activator assembly 92 is included with the housing 90 and includes a movable bottom portion 94 as shown by FIGS. 9 and 10 . The movable bottom portion 94 is operatively associated with each of the reservoirs 20 to compress the reservoirs 20 to force the water therein to be transported to the vials 64 to form the protein solutions and to transport the solutions from the reservoirs 20 to each of the dispensing needles 48 as shown by FIG. 11 . It is understood that various modifications may be made to the embodiments disclosed herein to perform substantially the same function in substantially the same way to achieve substantially the same result. Also, besides applying one solution necessary to form a fibrin sealant, the fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly or each fibrin mixture and dispenser assembly within the single housing can be used to perform human or veterinary surgical procedures including applying antiseptics, medication and other similar procedures. Therefore, the above description should not be construed as limiting, but merely as exemplifications of preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art will envision other modifications within the scope and spirit of the claims appended hereto. The following numbered paragraphs are to be regarded as part of the description.
