Abstract

Background: Fibrin glue is a commonly used hemostatic agent.

Objective: The aim of the study was to determine the effect of adding platelets to fibrin glue concerning the release of platelet growth factors (PGF) and its stability.

Methods: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was added to a fibrinogen solution and mixed with 250 IU/mL thrombin
solution to form fibrin glue. The contents in the completely formed glue were squeezed out at 5, 60, 120, and
300 minutes to determine PGF. Then the stability of fibrin glue with and without platelets in plasma, urine and saliva was studied.

Results: Fibrin glue with platelets showed increased amounts of platelet-derived growth
factor (PDGF)-AB and PDGF-BB by time-dependent fashion. The fibrin glue with platelets showed less reduced mass, reflecting better stability, compared with that without platelets in plasma, urine and saliva.

Conclusion: Adding PRP to the fibrin glue released PGF and enhanced its stability
