Dear Dr.Lam
Does material of petridish impact grafts survival?
I mean plastic or glass petridish.Will the transmission of cold temperature better with glass petridish?
which one you use and why?

we have it initially in a metal container then to plastic. it really does not matter. that is truly irrelevant.

Dear sir,
Which anticoagulant comes in PRP kit ?

Dear Sir,
Which medium is better for Graft?Ringer lactate or Normal saline? and Why?

great question. the answer is that it is debatable. the studies have not conclusively demonstrated better in one than the other. i use chilled saline and before implantation i coat and soak all the grafts in PRP and Acell. this has really worked well for me.
