Prostaglandins in the preparation of blood components.
Prostaglandin E(1) significantly improved the separation of blood components in blood bags. The recovery in vivo and the life-span values of the platelets were not altered. The hemostatic effectiveness of platelets treated with prostaglandin was shown to be normal in man.
