In this article, we present detailed performance-related data about the kit from Dr. PRP USA and EmCyte PurePRP SupraPhysiologic Platelet Concentrating System (aka EmCyte PurePRP SP).
We compare the two kits looking at factors ranging from each company’s years in operation to the precise technology used. We also examine platelet concentration, time for centrifugation, volume capacity, regulatory status, and other factors.
Why has Dr. PRP USA unveiled a new series of comparison reports for PRP systems? It’s simple – not all PRP kits are created equal. We wish to help guide medical providers in choosing an effective PRP system. It’s equally important to help patients ask the right questions about what type of PRP system is being used for their PRP treatments.
Because PRP procedures will not have the desired result if a precise therapeutic dose of platelets is not accurately administered, two comparative factors are crucial when choosing the most effective PRP system: (1) platelet recovery and (2) viability of the platelets recovered.

Website for EmCyte refers to 30-minute time span for entire process and 7.5 minutes for centrifugation.
We have two kits available for purchase – a 30 cc kit and a 20 cc kit.
Our 30 cc PRP kit will be available later this year and requires a minimal blood draw of 27 cc, with a PRP yield of about 15 cc – allowing medical providers to harvest more PRP with one draw using a single kit.
Our 20 cc kit holds 20 cc of fluid—2 cc of anticoagulant with 18 cc of whole blood—and produces a fixed amount of 4 cc of highly concentrated PRP. It is, however, adjustable and can produce 2-6 cc.
EmCyte PurePRP SP 60 cc kit utilizes 8 cc of sodium citrate (SC) per 52 cc of whole blood to produce 7 mL of PRP.
Dr. PRP’s clear chambers ensure that you can see all the blood sample components. The buffy coat layer can be easily seen in the neck of the device, meaning that you can precisely separate the components into the type of PRP you wish to produce. You can even eliminate Red Blood Cells from your PRP final product. It is capable of producing a leukocyte poor and RBC poor (totally yellow) product or a leukocyte and RBC rich product for different uses. It can also produce low or high concentrations of platelets for different applications.
Some swinging-out centrifuges are compatible with the Dr. PRP USA Kit. We also offer adaptors for Harvest, EmCyte, and BioMet centrifuges.
The centrifuge offered accepts up to four, 30 mL, 60 mL, or 120 mL tubes. Additional information not available.

In multiple side-by-side comparisons, we haven’t found another kit in the industry that compares to Dr. PRP USA’s performance. The EmCyte PurePRP SP kit is one more example – it simply does not come close.
