Pearson correlation analysis revealed PDGF, TGF, and EGF had a strong positive correlation with the platelet concentration of the final PRP product (r = 0.697, p < 0.0001; r = 0.488, p < 0.0001; r = 0.572, p < 0.0001, respectively) CONCLUSIONS: There was a strong positive correlation between the concentration of platelets in the final PRP product and the levels of PDGF-AB, TGF-β, and EGF. These results suggested straightforward and cost-effective growth factor tests can provide valuable information about platelet content in PRP.
