Platelet-rich plasma and platelet gel preparation using Plateltex.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:White blood cell (WBC) fragments in platelet concentrates (PCs) may induce allo-immunization in the recipient. MATERIALS AND METHODS:As the level of WBC fragments can differ between PCs produced using different methods, we compared PCs prepared by using the buffy-coat method (BC-PCs) in plasm...
