Bioengineering (Basel). 2018 Mar 31;5(2):27. doi: 10.3390/bioengineering5020027.

Abstract

Non-transfusional hemocomponents for surgical use are autogenous products prepared through the centrifugation of a blood sample from a patient. Their potential beneficial outcomes include hard and soft tissue regeneration, local hemostasis, and the acceleration of wound healing. Therefore, they are suitable for application in different medical fields as therapeutic options and in surgical practices that require tissue regeneration.

Keywords: PRP; growth factors; platelet; tissue regeneration.
