Comparative study of vasaprostan and alprostan in spontaneous platelet aggregation test in mice

Bull Exp Biol Med. 2004 Oct;138(4):423-4. doi: 10.1007/s10517-005-0117-5.

Abstract

We propose a method for evaluation of spontaneous aggregation of mouse platelets based on routine clinical blood tests for humans. Comparative analysis of Vasaprostan and Alprostan drugs showed that this test can be used for testing of new drugs on animals.
