Abstract
The purpose of this project was to obtain some general knowledge of
the platelet, and. to devise a quantitative means of analyzing two types
of platelet aggregation curves: 1. the monophasic (rat platelet) curve,
and 2. the biphasic (human platelet) curve. This was achieved. by the in'
vitro aggregation of platelets using various concentrations of epinephrine
and noting the effect on the various parameters. It was found that increasing
concentrations of epinephrine caused an inhibition of platelet
aggregation in both the rat and the human.
