  1. Experiments were conducted three times using different platelets preparations. 1IC50 values are expressed as μg/mL of bioactive compound in the aggregometer cuvette. Final concentration of PAF in the aggregometer cuvette when tested when tested in rPRP was 2.24 × 10-7M. rPRP: rabbit Platelet Reach Plasma; ND: Not detected inhibition against PAF-induced platelet aggregation.
