Abstract
Human platelets were labelled with aqueous 111In-tropolonate in comparison with 111In-oxinate. In normals the labelling efficiency with 111In-tropolonate was higher (93%±2%) than with 111In-oxinate (67%±8%) (P<0.05). In cases of severe thrombocytopenia, lower labelling efficiencies were obtained. In six normals a mean platelet life of 9 days ±3 days and an initial recovery of 59%±15% were obtained. In twelve patients with trombocytopenia the mean platelet life was 4 days±4 days and the initial recovery was 58%±20%. The absolute uptake of radioactivity in spleen and in liver in both groups are reported.
