Whether in the operating room,
emergency room, laboratory, the PlasmaPrep™ centrifuge puts fast
blood separation at your fingertips, greatly reducing turn-around
time. The Platelet Poor Plasma Mode (PPP) provides serum or plasma
separations in 2 or 3 minutes. The Platelet Rich Mode (PRP) provides
for the development of platelet rich plasma in only 30 seconds.

Testing Applications
PPP Mode (2 or 3 Minute Spin) Coagulation: When
an anticoagulated specimen is separated for 2 or 3 minutes the resulting
high-quality platelet poor plasma may be used for coagulation studies
such as: Prothrombin Time Partial Prothrombin Time Thrombin Fibrinogen.
Chemistry: Plasma or serum separated by the PlasmaPrep™ centrifuge
may also be used for chemistry analyte testing. The use of plasma
or serum will depend upon the chemistry procedure employed.
PRP Mode (30 Second Spin) The PlasmaPrep™
centrifuge is designed to remove the red and white blood cells from
the plasma in the PRP mode and leave the platelets suspended in
the plasma. The resulting platelet rich plasma may then be used
for platelet aggregation studies.
Not for use with gel tubes.
