Deskripsi

Sachs et al. examine the effects of different ex vivo anticoagulants on the biomechanical and functional properties of single platelets using high-throughput real-time fluorescence and deformability cytometry (RT-FDC). Their results demonstrate that the choice of ex vivo anticoagulant may strongly impact the outcomes of mechanophenotyping.
