| Main Objective: To measure the platelet function post aspirin 300mgs.;Secondary Objective: Not appicable;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 4-6 hours post administration.; Primary end point(s): • The effect size of LTA platelet aggregation and the dynamic platelet function assay(DPFA) after administration of Aspirin 300mgs. • The variation in platelet response pre and post Aspirin 300mgs using standard LTA and the dynamic assay. • Reliability for measurement of arachidonic acid-induced platelet activity in healthy vounteers and donors on aspirin therapy. | — |
