Platelet-Rich Plasma: Preparation and Formulation

Platelet-rich plasma is a set of autologous platelet products used to accelerate recovery from injury. The basic rationale is to mimic the natural ways of healing, bringing to the injury site a set of molecules that will accelerate the functional recovery of the tissue, trying to regenerate the tissue itself, and not to merely repair with scar tissue. Among the jungle of products in this field, PRGF-Endoret (BTI-Biotechnology Institute, Vitoria, Spain) is a pioneering autologous regenerative technology with multiple therapeutic potentials, present in at least 4 different formulations, depending on the coagulation and activation degree of the samples. PRGF-Endoret technology is safe and has multiple applications and potentials.
