DOI: 10.1007/s10517-017-3966-9
Abstract: We studied structural and functional properties of human platelets in the presence of nanosilver particles. Incubation with 0.05-5 μM silver nanoparticles suppressed platelet adhesion in a dose-dependent manner without affecting internal platelet structure; during adhesion,… read more here.
