Factor VIII Deficient Plasma
Description
Deficient plasma (lyophilized) for the assay of factor VIII. All the clotting factors are present (constant and in the normal range, brought by the deficient plasma (lyophilized)), except for FVIII, which is brought by the diluted tested plasma (lyophilized), and clotting is triggered with cephalin, activator and calcium (aPTT). FVIII is the limiting factor and clotting time is inversely proportional to the concentration of FVIII.
Intended use
Measurement of factor VIII (FVIII) activity in human citrated plasma using a clotting method, in the presence of cephalin, activator and calcium (aPTT reagent).
For any in vitro protocol or research study where a source of human FVIII deficient plasma is required.
