Purpose | testing the quality of Platelet-rich plasma |
Platelet swirling is a noninvasive method for testing the quality of Platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Platelet swirling is caused by light diffraction due to the alignment of normal discoid-shaped platelets. These discoids align light that is diffracted, creating a cloud- or swirl-like appearance.
Results of a Platelet Swirling test are recorded as positive or extensive swirl, moderate or intermediate swirl, and absent or negative swirl.
