A physical description of the adhesion and aggregation of platelets

A physical description of the adhesion and aggregation of platelets

The early stages of clot formation in blood vessels involve platelet adhesion–aggregation. Although these mechanisms have been extensively studied, gaps in their understanding still persist. We have performed detailed in vitro experiments, using the well-known Impact-R device, and developed a numeri...
