Multiple electrode aggregometry and ADP-receptors. Adding ASA (acetylsalicylic acid) reagent to a blood sample reduces the aggregation responses in ASPItest and COLtest. ASA irreversibly inhibits COX1 in platelets, thereby inhibiting the production of TXA2. The ASA Reagent is used as a quality control in the platelet function testing with Multiplate, allowing the assessment of abnormal platelet responses in ASPItest and COLtest. This reagent is used as a quality control in Multiplate platelet function testing. The GPIIb/IIIa antagonist blocks the binding of fibrinogen to the GPIIb/IIIa receptors, preventing the formation of platelet-fibrinogen bonds and resulting in significantly reduced platelet aggregation in response to all
Endiandric acid C Endiandric acid C Endiandric acid C, isolated from the tree "Endiandra introrsa", is a well characterized chemical compound. Endiadric acid C is reported to have better antibiotic activity than ampicillin. This genus of trees is in the family Lauraceae. These trees are found in the north-eastern Australian rainforests and other tropical and subtropical regions. However, they are also found in southern Canada and in Chile. Endiandric acid C is also isolated from the species "E. xanthocarpa". Endiandric acids are also found in "Beilschmiedia" trees, which were categorized under the genus "Endiandra", but moved to their own genus as they found
