Abstract

We demonstrate that by tacking and analyzing platelet translocation along a surface of vWF, which is dominated by an initial GPIbα-vWF-A1 interaction, we can detect the effects of ReoPro (abciximab) on the target receptor. These experiments were performed using whole blood, illustrating a potential for clinical application.
