Abstract:
In blood samples of 12 healthy male volunteers under 50 years old the collagen induced platelet aggregation and the influence of a new 10% dextran 40.000 (Dextran Ebewe) was studied. Dextran was added to the samples with a concentration from 10 microliters up to 50 microliters/ml blood. In a concentration of 20 microliters/ml blood a significantly reduced collagen induced platelet aggregation was be observed. Higher dosages did not differ in a significant manner from this effect.
