Abstract:
The objective of this study is to determine whether there is a pathway different from the natural blood coagulation process involved in the plasma‐induced activation of platelets and coagulation factors. Plasma treatment of bleeding wounds generated glomerular structures, which could be detected in high‐magnification scanning electron microscopy images, and plasma flares produced aggregation on the surface of solutions containing bovine serum albumin, ovalbumin (OVA), or similar protein material. Ultramicroscopic analysis of the plasma‐generated aggregation of OVA indicated a possible mechanism to explain the particle formation and fusion as a monotonous solid appearance. This study suggests that plasma coagulation involves aggregations of materials in blood in addition to the activation of platelets and coagulation factors by plasma treatment.
