title: A comparative study of the effect of vitamin E-nicotinate and the combination of vitamin E and nicotinic acid on the hydrogen peroxide-induced platelet aggregation.
abstract: The inhibitory effect of vitamin E-nicotinate upon the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced platelet aggregation was found to be greater than that of either vitamin E alone or the combination of vitamin E and nicotinic acid. Nicotinic acid showed no inhibitory effect. It was suggested that the effect of vitamin E-nicotinate was not due to the additive effect of vitamin E and nicotinic acid produced by hydrolysis, but to the unique and distinctive property of vitamin E-nicotinate itself.
