Abstract: It is widely anticipated that large platelets are more reactive than small platelets. This was mainly shown in Ca2+-poor media albeit extracellular Ca2+ is utilized by platelets for activation. We determined the impact of extracellular… read more here.

Abstract: Platelets are transfused to patients to prevent bleeding. Since both preparation and storage can impact the hemostatic functions of platelets, we studied platelet concentrates (PCs) with different initial composition in regard to platelet fragmentation and… read more here.
