Dr. PRP USA Kit vs. PRPLabs (EmCyte PurePRP) Kit - Comparison Report

Published: 04/29/2024

Why is it important for doctors and patients to compare the performance of various PRP systems? Unfortunately, not all PRP kits are created equal.

In the interests of transparency, Dr. PRP USA has unveiled a new series of comparison reports to help guide medical providers in choosing an effective PRP system – and help patients ask the right questions about what type of PRP system is being used for their PRP treatments.

In this article, we present detailed performance-related comparison data about the kit from Dr. PRP USA and PRPLabs (EmCyte PurePRP).

We compare the two PRP kits looking at factors like:

  • platelet concentration
  • time for centrifugation
  • technology used
  • volume capacity
  • years in operation
  • regulatory status

Because PRP procedures will not have the desired result if a precise therapeutic dose of platelets is not accurately administered, two crucial factors are (1) platelet recovery and (2) viability of the platelets recovered – and these comparative factors should be top of mind when choosing the most effective PRP system.

Able to produce low or high concentrations of platelets for different applications.

PRPLabs (EmCyte PurePRP)

Volume Capacity

Dr. PRP USA

Dr. PRP USA’s clear chambers ensure that you can see all of 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.

With a 54 cc blood draw, this kit produces 7 cc of PRP.
