ProTec® PRP:
Our system is a closed-system that is easily processed in 5 easy steps. It includes a 9mL blood draw and 6-minute centrifuge spin that results in ~5 mL of Pure PRP ready for sterile injection. Some of the unique benefits of our system:
- A separating gel that effectively results in no RBC contamination and minimal to no WBC traces - so literally you get the most out of Pure PRP and takes out the guesswork common with other systems - Chemically balanced mix of anti-coagulant (sodium citrate) and coagulant (calcium chloride) helps form a fibrin matrix that protects platelets and releases healing growth factors over 7 days (unlike other systems that release in just hours and are inconsistent with healing time) - Equine System: PRP processing can be done stall side!!! - Cost-effective: pays for itself Cost of the system is $2,250 (centrifuge, mobile centrifuge case w/ wheels, 5-kits and shipping) Cost for small animal vets/others not needing the mobile centrifuge case would be $1,680. Kits, thereafter, are sold in 5-packs and pricing is $995 plus $35 shipping (so $199 a kit)

PROTEC® PRP PROCESSING – QUICK ACCESS TO ESSENTIAL STEPS
See complete Instructions for Use in Kit for more detailed
step-by-step visuals
STEP 1
Draw 9 mL of blood into yellow
tube using 21-gauge needle and
invert 7 times to mix with anti-
coagulant (sodium citrate)
STEP 2
Place yellow tube in centrifuge with red holders and utilize counter balance tube weight on opposite side.
Note: Yellow caps can be put on top of red holder to secure plasma tube
during spinning
Yellow start button will begin a 6-minute spin. If the patient is a dog, please note that blood may vary in certain dogs so an
additional spin for complete separation may be needed. Note: As timing is important, prep the animal during spinning so you are prepared
for final steps and to inject
Following centrifuge spin, invert the tube 7 times to optimize the
mix of platelets and plasma
STEP 3 - CRUCIAL STEP TO ENSURE VACUUM/TRANSFER
Remove the blue cap from vial and place vial on a flat surface.
Hold firmly in place with one hand. Using your dominant hand to
hold transfer device, evenly align and center the transfer device
to the top of the vial without the two touching or puncturing yet.
Then press device down with one forceful push (you will hear it
snap if it was aligned correctly). This will help ensure an adequate
vacuum for transfer.
STEP 4
Invert yellow PRP tube and place into plastic transfer
device where it will puncture so that PRP
can begin to transfer into the vial.
Following complete transfer of PRP, remove plasma tube
and invert the vial with transfer cap on
7 times to mix with coagulant (calcium chloride). Note: Plasma will begin to coagulate in 10-15 minutes following this inversion so
immediately prepare for injection
STEP 5
Screw off top portion of transfer device and attach
syringe. Invert vial and withdraw PRP. Twist the vial
off of the syringe and twist on 21-gauge needle to the
syringe, remove safety cap, and inject.
Get the most out of Pure PRPProTec ® PRP – Simple, consistent preparation meets effective healingPlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) involves getting the most out of viable platelets within plasma. These platelets thrive long enough to distribute healing growth factors to an injury to stimulate recovery.
Preparation that’s easy and consistent• Blood-separating technology ensures pure PRP – separating gel with anti-
coagulant (sodium citrate) physically separates plasma and platelets from red and white blood cells - takes the guess work out of PRP separation
• Only 9 mL of blood and 6-minute centrifuge spin to achieve consistent plasma and platelet separation every time
• Calcium chloride included in vial counterbalances anti-coagulant for effective formation of a fibrin matrix that protects platelets and healing growth factors
• Closed-system preparation results in 4-5 mL of PRP ready for sterile injection into tendon/ligaments, soft-tissue and wounds
ProTec PRP: pure, protected platelet technology – effective healing with minimal start-up costs
Delivering protected platelets• Simple and effective preparation results in platelets that are 95% viable and are not
prematurely activated prior to injection• Vital growth factors within platelets are protected until activation • Controlled release of healing growth factors is gradual – over 7
days1 – consistent with healing times• The protective fibrin matrix fills the void within an injury and
allows for healing cells to migrate, proliferate, and deposit tissue for remodeling

The Healing Power of Pure,Protected PlateletsOptimizing platelet activation and preservation
• Platelet concentration is based on the amount of initial blood drawn and the remaining plasma content when red and white blood cells are separated from it
• ProTec has a concentration of 2x (based on a hematocrit of 50%) – a sufficient concentration for beneficial healing
• 2x concentration does not compromise the additional benefits/proteins plasma may offer. Attempting to achieve higher concentrations by removing more plasma may be done so at the expense of other vital components
• Coagulant helps to optimize the platelets and form a fibrin matrix inside the body post-injection – so platelets remain at the injection site and growth factors release over time 1
• No added external proteins or thrombin necessary - Alternate coagulants may saturate platelets and result in a fast, premature
release of growth factors inconsistent with healing times - The addition of bovine thrombin has been shown to release the majority of the
growth factors in 8 hours. TGF beta (TGF-β – Transforming Growth Factor Beta) and bFGF (Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor), the most common growth factors linked to early wound repair, were almost fully released in just 2 hours 2
• To date, no studies have identified the “ideal” concentration level for greatest efficacy, as many factors in healing with PRP are patient dependent. However, it has been shown that an excessive concentration may inhibit cellular response and healing³
Portable PRP processing and economically smart • Portable, light-weight centrifuge in a ready-to-go case – adaptable for in-clinic or remote treatments• Minimal start-up costs: low-cost centrifuge and sterile kits

Fibrinogen in plasma forms fibrin fibrin is released following injection and adheres to collagen fibers in an
overlapping matrix formation growth factors released from platelets
are held in matrix and gradually released to stimulate healing
