Means (standard error of the mean (s.e.m)) of PDGF-BB concentration (pg/mL) in the different blood components. Lower-case letters denote significant differences between blood components for every independent anticoagulant. Sodium citrate (SC): blood component significantly different with a: pure platelet-rich plasma (P-PRP) lysate and platelet poor plasma (PPP) lysate (P <0.001); b: pure platelet-rich gel (P-PRG) and platelet poor gel (PPG) (P <0.05); c: PPG and PPP lysate (P <0.001); and d: PPG (P <0.05). Acid citrate dextrose solution A (ACD-A): blood component significantly different with a: P-PRP lysate, PPP lysate, P-PRG and PPG (P <0.001); b: PPG and PPP lysates (P <0.001); and c: P-PRG (P <0.05). ACD-B: blood component significantly different with a: P-PRP and PPP lysates (P <0.001); b: P-PRG and PPG (P <0.05); and c: PPG and PPP lysates (P <0.001).
