i-STEM PRP Tube (Pack of 10)/Made in Korea What is PRP? Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated plasma derived from blood that contains a high number of platelets. These platelets release growth factors that play a key role in tissue repair and regeneration. What is Buffy Coat? The buffy coat is a thin layer that forms after centrifugation and contains most of the platelets and white blood cells. Is PPP the same as PRP? No. Platelet-Poor Plasma (PPP) does not meet the concentration required for PRP. For plasma to be considered PRP, it must contain at least 1,000,000 platelets/µl. Adding more PPP only dilutes the mixture, reducing its effectiveness in treatment. Does the buffy coat make up only 1% of whole blood? Yes. The buffy coat represents about 1% of total blood volume but contains a concentrated number of platelets and white blood cells essential for therapeutic use.
