Abstract

The intracellular content of ATP was determined by a bioluminescence method in the platelets of rabbits of two age groups. The results showed that platelets of rabbits aged 7–8 days contain 5.8±0.7 μmoles and platelets of adult rabbits 8.9±0.9 μmoles ATP per 1011 cells. The difference discovered is not due to the procedure used to isolate platelets from the blood.
