Platelets, 30(4), 530-534. https://doi.org/10.1080/09537104.2018.1535705It is widely believed that assays of platelet activation are susceptible to preanalytical variables related to blood draw technique. We assessed platelet activation by whole blood flow cytometry and investigated the effects of: (1) drawing blood into...
