Term Description

This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the Siemens Advia 120 Hematology system, which provides an approximate measure of the mean refractive index (RI) of platelets reported as MPC.

Part Description

LP183490-4   Mean platelet component
Mean platelet component concentration (MPC) is linearly related to platelet density (granularity) and is reduced when platelets degranulate, signifying that platelets have undergone activation and correlating with CD62P expression on the platelet membrane. This platelet parameter is a potentially simple and early screening indicator of acute phase platelet activation, and may be useful for monitoring patients with atherothrombosis and/or cardiovascular events. MPC is affected by time and storage conditions in standard anticoagulants based on EDTA. PMID: 20427079 Source: NCBI PubMed , PMID: 20427079
