Summary

Stypven times, measured in rat platelet-rich plasma (P. R. P.) after incubation with kaolin, did not shorten as incubation proceeded, thus reflecting the lack of development of platelet factor-3 (PF3) availability in this test system. Repeated freezing and thawing of P. R. P. or aggregation with collagen did result in PF-3 availability. Aggregation and PF-3 availability were inhibited by the compound VK774. These findings add another aspect to the list of species differences in platelet function.
