We studied the influence of storage (1-5 days) and gamma irradiation (0, 25, 50, 100 Gy) on the in vitro aggregability of stored platelets. Platelet aggregation was measured using the method of Born and Breddin and the aggregating agents ADP, collagen, ristocetin and arachidonic acid. With increasing time of storage the ADP-, collagen- and ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation was significantly diminished. On the other hand, the irradiation even with 100 Gy had no additional effect.
