Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

PLATELET-FUNCTION TESTS

The Lancet, 1969
The following platelet function tests are discussed: bleeding time, platelet retention tests, platelet aggregation, and radio-immunoassays for platelet release products, such as β thromboglobulin (βTG), and platelet factor 4 (PF4).

Testing Platelet Function

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 2013
Platelet function tests have been traditionally used to aid in the diagnosis and management of patients with bleeding problems. Given the role of platelets in atherothrombosis, several dedicated platelet function instruments are now available that are simple to use and can be used as point-of-care assays.

The Platelet and Platelet Function Testing in Liver Disease

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2009
Patients who have liver disease commonly present with alterations in platelet number and function. Recent data have questioned the contribution of these changes to bleeding complications in these patients. Modern tests of platelet function revealed compensatory mechanisms for the decreased platelet number and function, the most prominent compensatory ...

Sensitivity of Viscoelastic Tests to Platelet Function [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2020
Viscoelastic tests provide a dynamic assessment of coagulation, by exploring the time to clot formation and the clot strength. Using specific activators or inhibitors, additional factors can be explored, like the fibrinogen contribution to clot strength.

Tests of platelet function

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2007
Platelets play a vital role in the normal hemostasis, and derangements of their function can lead to hemorrhage or thrombosis. While we have made progress in elucidating the molecular mechanisms leading to platelet adhesion, aggregation, shape change, and secretion, clinically useful tests of platelet function have lagged behind.

Standardization of platelet function tests

American Journal of Hematology, 1981
AbstractMethods for the standardization of several currently used platelet function tests (bleeding time, capillary fragility, platelet retention, platelet aggregation, platelet factor 3, and platelet volume profiles) are presented. Different variables that may interfere with the reproducibility of the results of each assay were identified and ...

A new platelet function test

Thrombosis Research, 1990
A method for screening EDTA(K3) blood samples for platelet function is described. The general availability of whole blood platelet counters in the clinical laboratory suggested their use to measure platelet aggregation. To simplify the collection and storage of blood samples, a method utilizing EDTA collected blood is described. Addition of calcium and

Platelet Function Tests in Disease

Annual Review of Medicine, 1973
Abnormal platelet function may result from congenital or acquired disturbances in the platelets themselves or their plasma milieu in patients with hemorrhage or thrombosis. Although standardization is difficult and results overlap between patient groups certain tests are abnormal in patients with diabetes and atherosclorosis and in women on oral ...

Contemporary platelet function testing

cclm, 2010
Abstract Defects in primary hemostasis typically lead to a bleeding diathesis and include several disorders, such as von Willebrand disease and various platelet function defects that may arise because of failure of membrane receptors, deficiencies in internal storage organelles, and/or signal transduction problems.
