TLDR The syringe method is better for preparing platelet-rich plasma.
This study aimed to develop an optimized protocol for preparing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) by standardizing two methods: the tube method and the syringe method. Conducted at MGM Blood Bank in Navi Mumbai over 3 months, the study involved 10 healthy donors. PRP was prepared using a double centrifugation method, and four protocols were tested for each method. The study concluded that the syringe method was more effective in terms of platelet increment and sterility. The findings provided a reliable, practical, and cost-effective protocol for PRP preparation, potentially contributing to future research on PRP preparation and its clinical benefits.
