Product Overview
The Clotalyst Autologous Activation System rapidly produces up to 10 ml of autologous clotting factors from 12 ml of the patient’s blood at the point-of-care. When combined with the leukocyte-rich platelet–rich plasma (L-PRP) produced by the GPS III Platelet Concentration System, the autologous clotting factors from the Clotalyst Autologous Activation System activate platelets and initiate fibrin formation and cross-linking to form a platelet gel in under 15 seconds.
