Abstract

Background: Platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF; Choukroun's technique) is a second‐generation platelet concentrate for surgical use. This easy protocol allows the production of leukocyte‐ and platelet‐rich fibrin clots and membranes starting from 10‐ml blood samples. The purposes of this study were to determine the cell composition and three‐dimensional organization of this autologous biomaterial and to evaluate the influence of different collection tubes (dry glass or glass‐coated plastic tubes) and compression procedures (forcible or soft) on the final PRF‐membrane architecture. Methods: After centrifugation, blood analyses were performed on the residual waste plasmatic layers after collecting PRF clots. The PRF clots and membranes were processed for examination by light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Results: Approximately 97% of the platelets and >50% of the leukocytes were concentrated in the PRF clot and showed a specific three‐dimensional distribution, depending on the centrifugation forces. Platelets and fibrin formed large clusters of coagulation in the first millimeters of the membrane beyond the red blood cell base. The fibrin network was very mature and dense. Moreover, there was no significant difference in the PRF architecture between groups using the different tested collection tubes and compression techniques, even if these two parameters could have influenced the growth factor content and biologic matrix properties. Conclusions: The PRF protocol concentrated most platelets and leukocytes from a blood harvest into a single autologous fibrin biomaterial. This protocol offers reproducible results as long as the main production principles are respected.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
