  2. Air displacement plethysmography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Displacement_Plethysmo...

    Air displacement plethysmography (ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing , but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...

  3. Multiple electrode aggregometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_electrode...

    Multiple electrode aggregometry. Multiplate multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) is a test of platelet function in whole blood. [1][2] The test can be used to diagnose platelet disorders, [3][4][5] monitor antiplatelet therapy, [6] and is also investigated as a potential predictor of transfusion requirements and bleeding risk in cardiac surgery.

  4. PFA-100 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PFA-100

    PFA-100. The PFA-100 (P latelet F unction A ssay [1] or P latelet F unction A nalyser [2]) is a platelet function analyser that aspirates blood in vitro from a blood specimen into disposable test cartridges through a microscopic aperture cut into a biologically active membrane at the end of a capillary. The membrane of the cartridges are coated ...

    The actual deferral percentage (ADP) of all HCEs as a group cannot exceed 2 percentage points greater than all NHCEs as a group. This is known as the ADP test. When a plan fails the ADP test, it essentially has two options to come into compliance.

  6. ATP test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATP_test

    ATP is a molecule found in and around living cells, and as such it gives a direct measure of biological concentration and health. ATP is quantified by measuring the light produced through its reaction with the naturally occurring firefly enzyme luciferase using a luminometer. The amount of light produced is directly proportional to the amount ...

  7. P2Y12 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P2Y12

    P2Y 12 is a chemoreceptor for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) [5] [6] that belongs to the G i class of a group of G protein-coupled (GPCR) purinergic receptors. [7] This P2Y receptor family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine nucleotides.

  8. Adenosine diphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_diphosphate

    Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), also known as adenosine pyrophosphate (APP), is an important organic compound in metabolism and is essential to the flow of energy in living cells. ADP consists of three important structural components: a sugar backbone attached to adenine and two phosphate groups bonded to the 5 carbon atom of ribose .
