Abstract
data further confirmed the inhibition of platelet activation by TF-1 with a prolonged arterial occlusion time (from 15.0 ± 1.1 minutes to 40.0 ± 5.4 minutes). All the results indicated that TF-1 is a powerful inhibitor of platelet activation and thrombosis formation in C57BL/6 mice, and could be developed as a novel food-based inhibitor of thrombotic disorders.
