How does Alocuro PRO-PRP compare with other manual PRP kits? 

Superior PRP efficiency 

Alocuro’s PRO-PRP device and preparation protocol has demonstrated outstanding performance in extracting, separating, and collecting PRP from patient’s blood with documented platelet concentration of up to a multiple of 12.8x platelet concentration above physiological baseline level, and a platelet recovery efficiency of 90-95%. This efficiency is significantly superior to other manual preparation PRP kits currently available in Australia.

Leukocyte-reduced and leukocyte-rich prp are achievable with Alocuro’s prp system

PRP ‘recipe’ can be customised to treatment application. Total PRP volume, ideal platelet concentration, leukocytes included or not.

Intact, non-activated Platelets for optimal release of growth factors upon injection 

Apart from standard CPDA anti-coagulation, Alocuro PRP does not require the use of any foreign material e.g.: activation material, thixotropic separation gel to separate or activate the cellular components. This ensures that the patient is receiving a pure, unaltered by chemicals, autologous blood product, which optimises local healing and minimises the risk of reaction to and complications from the PRP injection. In-situ activation of platelets (injected platelets being exposed to collagen) is beneficial for stimulating a continuous healing response due to slower release of growth factors

Parameters that need to be included for comparative optimisation of PRP preparation protocols include:

  • the absolute number and concentration of platelets over baseline, should be at least 3X

  • the absolute number and concentration of leukocytes / WBC below baseline, should be physiological baseline (1X) or less

  • the absolute number and concentration of RBC below physiological baseline- should ideally be nil

  • the choice between exogenous pre-activation of platelets or not,

  • the number of injections or applications

  • and the delay between injections or applications

Need a PRP protocol that:

  • standardises the preparation of PRP

  • emphasis on overall preservation of platelets’ physiological properties until time of injection

  • reproducible in any clinical setting

  • cost-effective delivery of growth factors
