A slightly increasing trend for platelet adhesion was observed, but only the number of thrombi at 1600 s −1 reached statistical significance ( p < 0.05), going from 63 ± 83 to 126 ± 111 for WB and WB + PDMP, respectively.
In addition, we found a decreasing trend for SC with increasing shear rate on fibrinogen, although non-statistically significant, as supported by Savage et al., who observed an impediment to sustaining platelet accumulation on fibrinogen at high shear rates [ 66 ].
Laminin Substrate–Effect of Shear and Platelet-Derived Microparticles on Thrombus Formation Shear Effects On laminin, which is a link protein of the ECM, thrombus formation showed a trend similar to fibronectin for all the parameters (Fig. 7 ).
