ABSTRACT
When dipotassium EDTA anticoagulated platelet rich plasma was incubated against a range of hypotonic saline concentrations, platelet volume was seen to change in a particular and reproducible fashion. When platelets taken from patients suffering a thromboembolic episode were tested in the same manner, a different pattern of response was observed the platelets being far less tolerant to osmotic stress. Similar changes occurred in platelets from ante-natal subjects. Platelets from both groups regained their tolerance to hypotonicity following either the thromboembolic incident or parturition respectively.
