In vivo method for the assessment of platelet accumulation

Journal Article · · J. Pharmacol. Methods; (United States)

Platelets labeled with 111-Indium have been injected intravenously into anesthetised guinea pigs, and intrathoracic content of 111-Indium-labeled platelets has been monitored continuously using a microcomputer-based system (AIMSplus). Dose-effect relationships have been described for ADP, collagen, and PAF, and effects of drugs upon selected responses illustrate the potential of this test system for routine in vivo screening of agents that may inhibit aggregation of platelets.
