Overview

Assay-specific interpretation is required for platelet testing; leaves open standardization needs for consistent clinical and research use.

Chan et al. (2018) conducted a review in Platelet function testing. 96-well plate aggregometry vs. Classical light transmission aggregometry (LTA) was evaluated on Platelet aggregation responses to agonists and antagonists. 96-well plate aggregometry and classical light transmission aggregometry yield different responses to platelet agonists and antagonists, demonstrating that the assays are not interchangeable.
