Purpose: Injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF) may enhance tissue regeneration and using as a filler material. However, fractionation protocols used to prepare i-PRF can be varied and the effects of difference fractionation protocols is not known. It was hypothesized that different fractions in reference to the buffy coat might have different of the mechanical and biological properties toward the final i-PRF product.
