  • Blood-Platelet Test Method and Blood-Platelet Test Device
    Publication number: 20160103142
    Abstract: A method for testing platelet function, wherein platelet function is tested by allowing anticoagulated blood, to which a weak platelet-activating reagent has been mixed, to pass through a capillary having a platelet-adhesive surface on at least a part of its inner surface, and observing or measuring the behavior of the blood in the capillary.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 2, 2015
    Publication date: April 14, 2016
    Applicant: FUJIMORI KOGYO CO., LTD
    Inventors: Kazuya Hosokawa, Masashi Fukasawa, Maki Terada
  • Microchip for platelet examination and platelet examination device using same
    Patent number: 8796031
    Abstract: A microchip for measuring platelet function by allowing blood to flow through a channel to induce platelet aggregation, wherein the microchip has a channel provided inside thereof, wherein at least a part of the channel is coated with collagen for allowing adhesion of platelets; a plurality of walls extend along the direction of the flow of blood in the channel and divide the width of the channel to form a channel dividing section; and the walls are treated to have a surface roughness (Ra) of 10 to 200 nm.
