Abstract
Abstract The platelet release reaction was studied by a new quenched-flow approach. Platelets labeled with 14C-serotonin were reacted for short times (up to 5 sec) with thrombin and then quenched with glutaraldehyde or paraformaldehyde. Serotonin secretion began within 1 sec and was nearly complete by 4 sec. Aggregation recorded by a resistive-particle counter was similarly fast. Therefore, the quenched-flow system reveals that serotonin secretion can occur more rapidly than estimated in earlier studies.
