Abstract
A method has been developed for measuring the adhesion of platelets to purified collagen fibers obtained from bovine tendon. This method differs from others in that: (a) platelet adhesion is measured in the absence of platelet aggregation; (b) platelet-rich plasma collected in ACD (acid citrate dextrose) or EDTA, or washed platelets can be employed; (c) adherent platelets are enumerated directly; (d) erythrocytes and leukocytes do not adhere.
