Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a disorder of systemic platelet aggregation. Evidence has accumulated that the aggregating agonist in TTP of all types is likely to be von Willebrand factor (vWf), especially unusually large vWf multimers derived from endothelial cells. Recent evidence in
## Abstract The effect of adsorbed fibrinogen (Fg) and von Willebrand factor (vWf) on platelet adhesion at low or high shear rate to several materials was studied. The materials studied were polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polystyrene (PS), glass, and tetraglymeβcoated PET. The materials were pre
