A device developed at the EHU makes it simple to obtain platelet-rich plasma

Researchers at EHU developed a portable, cost-effective system for generating high-quality platelet-rich plasma (PRP), minimizing platelet activation and preserving therapeutic efficacy. The device uses gravity sedimentation and can extract up to 300 micro-liters of PRP from 1 milliliter of blood in just 40 minutes.

New tool to analyze blood platelets holds major medical potential

A novel technique to test platelet function within a person's blood sample is faster, easier and more precise than methods currently in use. The technology has the potential to assess the effects of antiplatelet drugs on individuals and gain a clearer picture of bleeding risks for patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
