Abstract
SummaryThe soybean lipid emulsion Intralipid was infused during two hours in 13 volunteer individuals. Biochemically, lipid infusions increased the platelet content of triglycerides, but did not cause significant platelet aggregation, and the platelet counts and survival time were unchanged. However, the lipid infusions reduced platelet and erythrocyte electrophoric mobility, reduced the availability of platelet factor 3 by ADP or kaolin and reduced platelet adhesiveness. A coating of parts of the platelet surface by lipid particles or some other changes in the platelet membrane could explain the effects on platelet electrophoretic mobility, platelet factor 3, and adhesiveness.
