Unfragmented heparin (500 IU/kg body weight) or low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) (500 antifactor Xa units/kg body weight) were given either 15 min before harvesting the vessels or added directly to the perfusate.

- Heparin is widely used as an antithrombotic agent, but one reported complication is thrombocytopenia associated with platelet aggregation. The mechanism is not fully clear but heparin interference in the prostaglandin production has been proposed. To investigate if heparin interacts with the production of prostacyclin from the vessel wall, and if low-molecular-weight heparin differs from unfractionated heparin in this respect, excised rabbit aortas were studied in a perfusion model.
