Schwartz1, Tanner Nevill1, Cristian Ionescu-Zanetti1 1Fluxion Biosciences, Inc. The platelet adhesion cascade takes place in the presence of shear flow, a factor not accounted for in conventional (static) well-plate assays. This article reports on a platelet-aggregation assay utilizing a microfluidic well-plate format to emulate physiological shear flow conditions.
