Product Details
Intended Use
Blood Separation Kits used to separate a patient's own blood components by density using a centrifuge. The 3.13% Sodium Citrate anticoagulant ensures high-quality, clot-free PRP for local application to soft and hard tissues, stimulating faster healing of damaged tissues.
Performance & Clinical Information
REIN PRP provides an autologous treatment where platelet-rich plasma is re-injected for bone and soft tissue healing. Uses Sodium Citrate anticoagulant as per literature standards to prevent clotting. Blood is separated via centrifuge, PRP layer is extracted. Clinical Evaluation and Risk Analysis Reports confirm clinical effectiveness and safety.
Patient Profile
Suitable for individuals approved by a physician for autologous PRP treatment. Being autologous, it prevents infectious disease transmission, offering a safe application.
Intended User Profile
Must be used by a licensed physician or healthcare professionals with sufficient experience and training in PRP preparation and administration.
Shelf Life & Storage
Shelf Life: 24 months from manufacture date (check expiration date on product).
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place according to package specifications.

How to Use (Step-by-Step)
- Open the box.
- Open the sterile blister pack.
- Combine the holder and the blood collection needle.
- Apply the blood collection needle to the cleaned venipuncture site on the patient's arm.
- Place the REIN PRP tube into the holder attached to the needle (Routine Phlebotomy).
- Allow the vacuum tube to draw blood until flow stops.
- Repeat for the second tube without removing the needle from the vein.
- Place both tubes in a compatible centrifuge.
- Centrifuge at 850 G for 8 minutes (ensure centrifuge buckets are compatible).
- Attach the 18G needle to the 5ml Luer-lok syringe.
- Carefully insert the 18G needle into the PRP tube (maintain sterility - do not open cap unless under Laminar Flow).
- Aspirate the PRP layer above the red blood cell (RBC) layer.
- Collect approximately 2ml of PRP from each tube into the 5ml syringe (total 4ml).
- Gently shake the syringe for 60 seconds to homogenize plasma.
- Attach the desired application needle (e.g., 21G) to the syringe.
- Apply to the patient via injection method.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do REIN PRP tubes compare to Regenlab or T-Lab tubes?
REIN PRP tubes are CE Class IIB certified and utilise high-grade 3.13% Sodium Citrate in an ISO Class 8 cleanroom facility. Unlike some systems (like Regenlab often using gel), REIN tubes are typically gel-free, potentially reducing contamination risk. Our specific 850G x 8 min protocol is optimised for high platelet yield (typically 4-6x concentration) using our tube design. We focus on providing a high-quality, reliable, and validated system for clinical PRP preparation.
What centrifuge settings should I use with REIN PRP Tubes?
The recommended protocol is 850 G for 8 minutes. However, always validate settings based on your specific centrifuge model and desired PRP characteristics. Consult your centrifuge manual or our technical support.
Are REIN PRP Tubes CE certified?
Yes, REIN PRP Tubes are certified CE Class IIB by Notified Body (2195), adhering to the EU Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC. We maintain rigorous quality control and validation.
What is the shelf life of REIN PRP Tubes?
REIN PRP Tubes have a 24-month shelf life from the date of manufacture when stored correctly. Check the expiry date on the packaging.
What is the sodium citrate concentration?
Each 10ml REIN PRP Tube contains 1ml of 3.13% Ph. Eur. Sodium Citrate solution for effective anticoagulation.
How much PRP yield can I expect?
Yield depends on patient factors and protocol, but REIN tubes are designed to achieve a 4-6 times concentration of platelets compared to baseline whole blood, providing potent PRP for therapeutic use.
Are the tubes compatible with all centrifuge types?
REIN PRP Tubes fit standard 10ml tube holders in most medical centrifuges. We recommend using a centrifuge with compatible buckets/adapters and verifying fit. Contact us if you have compatibility questions.
