I attempt to make the most accurate material I can. However, mistakes happen. Below is a list of mistakes identified in this video.

Known errors in this video:

At 1:34 I state that plasma still contains platelets after centrifugation. This is generally not true. The platelets settle into the thin white "buffy coat" that also contains the white blood cells. You can alter the process to create a platelet rich plasma. I have links below on how that works.
