Non-contact acoustic capture of platelet-derived microparticles from small plasma volumes
Author
Summary, in English
This paper presents the characterization and optimization of acoustic capture of platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) from human plasma. The technique is compared to a standard preparation protocol using differential centrifugation on biobank samples from patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The main advantages of this new method are the capability of rapidly capturing microvesicles from small sample volumes and the potential to extract intact vesicles for downstream processing or handling.
