Description
Why Choose CDRICH Gel & sodium Citrate 10 ml Tube?
PRP Preparation: With a 10 ml capacity and the Gel/Citrate combination, it is ideal for separating plasma used in facial and hair injections, as Citrate maintains platelet viability and causes less stinging upon injection compared to other anticoagulants.
High Purity Separation: The gel forms a tight physical barrier preventing the re-mixing of red blood cells with plasma, ensuring a pure sample (Golden Plasma).
Sample Preservation: Citrate prevents coagulation reversibly, making it excellent for keeping coagulation factors and platelets intact for analysis or therapy.
Ease of Extraction: Makes drawing the separated plasma into a syringe easy, removing the need for high skill to avoid disturbing the red blood cell layer, as the gel clearly separates them.

How to use
(For Professionals)
Draw: Fill the tube with blood up to the indicated mark (10 ml) to ensure the correct Blood-to-Citrate ratio (1:9).
Mix: Gently invert the tube 3-4 times immediately to mix the blood with the anticoagulant and prevent micro-clots.
Centrifuge: Place the tube in the centrifuge according to the specific speed and time required for the desired plasma type.
Result: You will find the yellow plasma on top, followed by the barrier gel, and the red blood cells at the bottom.
