چکیده

RESULTS: fPRP and cPRP groups demonstrated reduced cell adherence after isolation compared to non-PRP control groups (n=4/group, p<0.001). In contrast, ffPRP groups showed similar or better adherence than non-PRP control groups. When feeding protocols were compared after 7 days of growth, a single administration of either fPRP or ffPRP resulted in significantly larger population sizes than all other protocols (p<0.01). One of the 4 patients tested showed spontaneous osteogenesis in the presence of ffPRP.
