Table 1.

Cell counts measured in the reconstituted PRP fractions

Reconstituted fraction/WB ratio
Platelets WBCs RBCs Clot time
WB 1 1 1 1
PRP + PPP 1.08 ± 0.11 0.08 ± 0.06 < 0.002 1.89 ± 0.2
PRP + buffy coat 1.22 ± 0.06 1.05 ± 0.16 0.07 ± 0.02 1.83 ± 0.26
PRP + RBCs 1.20 ± 0.06 0.19 ± 0.04 0.68 ± 0.13 1.14 ± 0.08

Complete blood counts were performed on citrated samples from each blood mixture on an automated hematology analyzer. Cell counts were adjusted for the addition of 3.2% sodium citrate (9:1). Data are presented as the ratio of the reconstituted fraction over each patient's WB. Data are presented as the means ± SEM (n = 5).
