Microfluidic flow chambers using reconstituted blood to model hemostasis and platelet transfusion in vitro [PDF]
Blood platelets prepared for transfusion gradually lose hemostatic function during storage. Platelet function can be investigated using a variety of (indirect) in vitro experiments, but none of these is as comprehensive as microfluidic flow chambers.

Perbedaan Hitung Jumlah Trombosit Menggunakan Darah Vena dan Darah Kapiler
Background: Platelets play a role in hemostasis which is the body's mechanisms to prevent and stop the bleeding. Platelets participate in the effort to close the wound, so that the body does not experience a loss of blood and protected from foreign cells.

Intravascular tissue factor initiates coagulation via circulating microvesicles and platelets [PDF]
Although tissue factor (TF), the principial initiator of physiological coagulation and pathological thrombosis, has recently been proposed to be present in human blood, the functional significance and location of the intravascular TF is unknown.

Platelet Biochemistry and Morphology after Cryopreservation [PDF]
Platelet cryopreservation has been investigated for several decades as an alternative to room temperature storage of platelet concentrates. The use of dimethylsulfoxide as a cryoprotectant has improved platelet storage and cryopreserved concentrates can ...

Assessment of neonatal, cord, and adult platelet granule trafficking and secretion
Despite the transient hyporeactivity of neonatal platelets, full-term neonates do not display a bleeding tendency, suggesting potential compensatory mechanisms which allow for balanced and efficient neonatal hemostasis.

Dose-dependent effect of canine lyophilized platelet on an in vitro hemodilution model
The transfusion of stored platelets has emerged as an efficient method for treating dogs with thrombocytopenia. However, the availability of fresh platelets is limited in veterinary medicine due to demanding storage conditions. Lyophilized platelets have

BLOOD-PLATELETS AND TUBERCULOSIS [PDF]
So little is known concerning blood-platelets, and so little interest has been taken in them, that their description by Adami and Nichols 1 is almost fully quoted. If only because they play so important a part in the process of thrombosis it is necessary to have a clear understanding regarding the blood-platelets, or, more accurately, regarding what ...

Adenosine and blood platelets [PDF]
Adenosine is an important regulatory metabolite and an inhibitor of platelet activation. Adenosine released from different cells or generated through the activity of cell-surface ectoenzymes exerts its effects through the binding of four different G-protein-coupled adenosine receptors.

Intraoperative blood transfusions in highly alloimmunized patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation. [PDF]
Intraoperative blood requirements were analyzed in patients undergoing primary orthotopic liver transplantation and divided into two groups on the basis of panel reactive antibody of pretransplant serum measured by lymphocytotoxicity testing.
