Advanced Cellular Biologics with Therapeutic Strength Compositions
PurePRP II is an autologous cellular biologic that has become standard of care for many treatment modalities. In today’s world of regenerative medicine, clinicians are requiring products that are not only clinically effective but, also have the versatility to provide for specific treatment requirements. This may include therapeutic strength PRP with low neutrophils and no red blood cells. Or it may include therapeutic strength PRP with high neutrophils and nominal red blood cells. Some physicians may require a bioregenerative fibrinogen matrix scaffold to support PRP retention and sustain growth factor release. Others may require protein compositions to help mitigate cellular degradation. Whatever the need, PurePRP® II has the biologic versatility to be an integral part of the treatment modality.
The Cellular Physiology of PurePRP® II
Deliverable Platelets in PurePRP® II
Deliverable platelets are the actual volume of viable platelets contained in a PRP sample. PurePRP® II provide upwards of 9.5 billion platelets in a 7mL treatment sample (approximately 1.4 million platelets per microliter). High volumes of deliverable platelets enhances the volumetric activity of platelet growth factors and cytokines in active tissue repair. Platelet alpha granules contain various platelet growth factors that promote tissue repair through cell proliferation, chemotaxis, differentiation, and angiogenesis. Platelet cytokines provide the chemical stimulus needed to mediate cell signaling and migration. The amount of deliverable platelets are clinically significant if you are to attain active tissue repair. It is imperative that your deliverable platelet count be more than 1 million platelets per microliter.
Neutrophils in PurePRP® II
Neutrophils are the most abundant leukocyte and one of the first-responders to migrate towards a site of injury or infection (chemotaxis). Neutrophils are also the hallmark of acute inflammation. This is an aggressive response of chemical signals from cytokines such as interleukins (IL-1, IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) along with many others. The primary function of the neutrophil is to engulf and destroy foreign material through phagocytosis. Under normal circumstances, neutrophils are short lived (1-2 days) and are cleared by tissue macrophages. In conditions where the neutrophils cannot be cleared, for a lack of macrophages, they undergo a process called necrosis resulting in the release of all of the intracellular contents. This causes the amplification and prolonging of the inflammatory response. This prolonged amplified inflammatory response potential, is a concern of many physicians. This is why physicians are not encouraged by a PRP product containing high concentrations of neutrophils.
Monocytes in PurePRP® II
Monocytes are the largest of all leukocytes and are characteristically non-inflammatory phagocytic cells. Monocytes migrate to sites of injury and infection and differentiate into macrophages and dendritic cells to elicit an immune response which last for longer periods of time (months rather than days when compared to neutrophils). Monocytes illicit the immune response through phagocytosis, antigen presentation, and cytokine production each of which has a specific and deliberate function in enhancing the immune response through both protective prophylaxis and active phagocytosis.
PurePRP® II is unique in that it greatly enhances monocyte concentrations, while giving the end user control over the amount of neutrophils they would like to add to their PRP preparation. PurePRP® II takes advantage of the long term phagocytic and protective properties of the monocytes while avoiding the potential harmful inflammation incurred by large concentrations of neutrophils that go through cellular necrosis. This is another differentiating factor that help to explain the natural success of PurePRP® II in patient outcomes.
PurePRP® II
One System Two Protocols
Protocol A
Protocol A processes PurePRP® without red blood cells or neutrophil granulocytes. This protocol is used when powerful healing without inflammatory activity is required at the application site. This protocol is also the low viscosity solution to a viable PRP product, providing very high concentrations of platelets in a bath of non-viscous plasma. This protocol has also been reported to reduce the potential for pain at the application site. It is the most frequently used protocol.
Protocol B
Protocol B processes PurePRP® with low red blood cell counts and very high cytokine activity and neutrophil cell recoveries. This protocol is used when the phagocytic powers of neutrophils are needed to help fight infectious processes at the application site. This protocol produces the highest chemoattractant activity and significantly increases regeneration potential. Once the neutrophils have completed phagocytosis, they become apoptic cells and are subsequently removed, thereby also eliminating the inflammatory activity.

The AbsoluteBMC™
Concentrating System
The AbsoluteBMC™ Concentrating System has been re branded from the former 544e. AbsoluteBMC™ provides significant concentrations of CFU-F, CD34+, and total nucleated cell counts. CD34+ are cell markers for hematopoietic stem cells. These are the primary multipotent cells that replenishes all blood cell types. These cells are crucial for the regenerative processes needed for active tissue repair. In addition to these cells are CFU-F, which are representative of mesenchymal stem cells. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent stromal cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types, including cartilage, bone and adipose cells. AbsoluteBMC™ provides therapeutic concentrations of these cell types which is the key to desirable patient outcomes. AbsoluteBMC™ is the fastest and most efficient single spin 60mL concentrating systems available. Prepare 7mL of BMC, in a SINGLE 5 MINUTE SPIN.

PureBMC® can be prepared with or without Heparin, either way it provides viable platelet concentrates that further add to the strength of the cell composition. PureBMC® delivers the excellence and reliability physicians can depend on.
Higher HSC Concentrations
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are the blood cells that has the ability to replenish all blood cell types (Multipotency) and the ability to self-renew. This include monocytes, macrophages, erythrocytes, megakaryocytes, platelets, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, dendritic cells and lymphoid lineage cells.
Higher MSC Concentrations
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are multipotent stromal cells that can differentiate into a variety of cell types. These cell types primarily include cartilage, bone and adipose cells. Mesenchymal stem cells are found in very small quantities in bone marrow aspirate, making the concentrating capabilities of PureBMC® more vital to the physician.
Higher TNC Concentrations
Total nucleated cell count by any method is a count of cells with nuclei. In order to properly represent the TNC cell count a correction calculation that removes nucleated red blood cells (nRBCs) is performed. It is understood, as in other therapies, that more cells better outcomes. GenesisCS
