Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to prepare platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel from human umbilical cord artery blood. Methods: PRP were obtained from umbilical cord artery blood and activated by CaCl2 (10%)/Thrombin 2/5 (mL) solution in the appropriate ratio. Platelet ratio and purity of good quality according to DEPA classification of Magalon J. Results: The obtained PRP had an average platelet count of 6.5 ± 1.5 × 109 platelets/mL, eight times higher than whole blood. According to the DEPA classification, platelet recovery rate and purity reached a high-quality level. The activation process is of near-ideal quality. The optimal PRP/CaCl2 (10%)/Thrombin ratio is 1/2/5. Conclusion: Successfully prepared PRP gel from cord blood with platelet concentration 8 times higher than whole blood, light yellow color and purity from 3.9+.
