“…Plasma was collected after centrifugation at 1000 × g for 10 min at room temperature. An aliquot of 100 μl plasma was supplemented with series concentrations of P1Cm, ranging from 0.15 to 0.45 mM, 0.15 mM tirofiban or vehicle (PBS, pH 7.4), followed by an incubation of 5 min at 37°C before being sent to an ACL TOP Automatic Coagulation Analyzer (Beckman Coulter, USA; Wang et al, 2013 ). The coagulation parameters, such as activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), and thrombin time (TT; Chen et al, 2013 ), were recorded, and each assay was performed in triplicate.…”
