A system for dispensing a medium includes at least a first container to
hold the medium, a pressurizing device, such as a pump, in fluid
connection with the container for pressurizing the medium, and an
agitation mechanism or device to maintain the components of the medium in
a mixed state. The container and the pressurizing device can be separate
units, as in the case of an bag or bottle in fluid connection with a
peristaltic or other type of pump. The container and the pump can also be
combined in a single unit, as in the case of a syringe, wherein the
syringe barrel of the syringe acts to contain the medium and the syringe
plunger pressurizes the medium within the syringe barrel. A method of
injecting a multi-component medium includes the step of agitating the
medium (for example, as described above) before or during an injection
procedure to maintain the components of the medium in a mixed state.
