Hart Biologicals Epinephrine Reagent is used to diagnose platelet dysfunction, or normal platelet activity in human platelet rich plasma or whole blood.
In pharmacological terms the interaction of epinephrine with platelets has been well studied. Platelets contain around 300 receptors for epinephrine which are α2-adrenergic subclass.
Epinephrine can stimulate fibrinogen binding and platelet aggregation without causing platelet secretion; however, as is the case with other so called ‘weak’ agonists, platelet secretion in response to epinephrine takes place only after initial aggregation.
The reagent contains a lyophilised preparation of 100µM Epinephrine with added buffer and stabilisers.
