Class IIa
Certification and regulatory status
Vi PRP-PRO is CE marked as a Class IIa medical device under Directive 93/42/EEC and is covered by EC certificate 0425-MED-004180-00. This regulatory classification also applies to the sales unit containing two tubes.
The existing classification is based on European Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC.
The PRP-PRO commercial variant was added to the certificate scope by an ICIM confirmation dated 22 November 2023.
The product is supplied under the applicable European transitional provisions.
For purchasing and quality management: Certificate and manufacturer documents can be requested before ordering. The current documents issued by the manufacturer and notified body remain authoritative.
Request documentsWhen is the Vi PRP-PRO 2-pack useful?
The 2-pack contains the same Vi PRP-PRO tubes as the larger sales unit, but in a smaller pack size. It is suitable for professional users who initially require only a small quantity or who want to keep their stock deliberately limited.
Suitable for professionals who
- need two sterile PRP tubes rather than a larger sales unit,
- work with sodium citrate and a physical gel barrier,
- use a glass tube designed for approximately 9 ml of blood,
- apply the standard protocol of 1200 × g for 7 minutes,
- check compatibility with centrifuge, rotor and adapter before use.
Clear distinction
- Vi PRP-PRO is not a conventional PRF tube without anticoagulant.
- It is not a standard diagnostic tube for laboratory testing.
- Vi PRP-PRO does not contain melatonin.
- The smaller pack size does not change the intended purpose or instructions for use.
- Tubes with and without separation gel should not be exchanged without verification.

Standard centrifugation based on RCF
For Vi PRP-PRO, the technical standard is a relative centrifugal force of 1200 × g for 7 minutes. The required rotational speed in rpm depends on the maximum rotor radius of the centrifuge used.
An rpm value must therefore not be transferred from one centrifuge model to another without verification. The calculation requires the distance from the axis of rotation to the bottom of the inserted tube in its operating position.
Orientation values for selected centrifuges
The target value for Vi PRP-PRO is 1200 × g for 7 minutes. The speeds below are rounded orientation values for selected devices.
Hettich EBA 200 / EBA 200 MD
ca. 3500 rpmOrientation value for 1200 × g
Hettich EBA 270
ca. 2900 rpmOrientation value for 1200 × g
SERVOspin Evolve
ca. 3400 rpmOrientation value for 1200 × g
Note: The actual rotor radius, rotor, adapter, tube position and the instructions for use of both tube and centrifuge remain decisive. If the configuration differs, the required speed must be recalculated.
Vi PRP-PRO in the professional preparation workflow
The following overview is intended for technical orientation. The current instructions for use, approval of the centrifuge used and the operating procedures of the responsible medical facility remain binding.
1. Blood collection
The vacuum is designed for approximately 9 ml of blood per tube. Sodium citrate and separation gel are already contained in the tube.
2. Centrifugation
The standard value is 1200 × g for 7 minutes. Tubes, rotor and adapters must be inserted symmetrically and balanced according to the device instructions.
3. Fraction separation
During centrifugation, the thixotropic gel supports physical separation of the blood fractions. Further collection is performed according to the procedure specified for the system.
4. Documentation
Depending on the internal quality-management system, the centrifuge model, rotor, adapter, RCF, run time, batch and accessories used may be documented.
Regular demand? Vi PRP-PRO is also available as a 10-pack
The larger sales unit contains ten sterile Vi PRP-PRO tubes and is intended for practices with regular consumption. Product specifications and the standard protocol are identical.
Classifying and comparing PRP tubes
Pack size and price should not be the only selection criteria. Material, additives, intended blood volume, centrifugation protocol and compatibility with the existing system are also relevant.
International availability through prpmed.de
prpmed.de ships Vi PRP-PRO PRP tubes to professional customers in numerous European and international markets. Actual availability depends on the destination country, the available shipping route and the applicable import and product regulations.
Available destinations and shipping costs are shown during checkout. For larger quantities or regular orders, the 10-pack is usually the more suitable pack size.
Frequently asked questions about the Vi PRP-PRO 2-pack
What does the Vi PRP-PRO 2-pack contain?
The sales unit contains two sterile Vi PRP-PRO vacuum tubes made of borosilicate glass. Each tube contains 0.8 ml sodium citrate and a thixotropic separation gel.
Are the tubes identical to those in the 10-pack?
Yes. They are the same Vi PRP-PRO tube system. The only difference is the pack size: two tubes instead of ten.
How much PRP can be obtained from one tube?
Approximately 4–4.5 ml per tube can be used as an orientation value. The actual volume depends on the starting material and preparation process.
Which centrifugation protocol applies?
The standard value is 1200 × g for 7 minutes. The required speed in rpm is calculated from the rotor radius of the centrifuge used.
Why do rpm values differ between centrifuges?
Relative centrifugal force depends on both speed and rotor radius. The same target of 1200 × g may therefore require different rpm settings on different centrifuges.
Does Vi PRP-PRO contain melatonin?
No. Vi PRP-PRO contains sodium citrate and a thixotropic separation gel, but no melatonin.
Is Vi PRP-PRO a PRF tube?
No. Vi PRP-PRO is a PRP tube with sodium citrate and separation gel. Conventional PRF tubes are often used without anticoagulant and are therefore not equivalent.
Which CE marking does the product carry?
Vi PRP-PRO carries CE marking CE 0425 and is classified as a Class IIa medical device under Directive 93/42/EEC.
Who is the 2-pack intended for?
The product is intended for qualified healthcare professionals and professional purchasers in practices, clinics and medical facilities. Use and preparation must follow the instructions for use and internal procedures.

What is PRP?
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. Centrifugation is used to obtain a plasma fraction with an increased platelet concentration from a blood sample. PRP is used and scientifically investigated in a range of medical and aesthetic fields. A qualified practitioner assesses whether an application is appropriate based on the indication and the procedure used.
