Coagulation Controls
Prior to the development of the standardized tissue thromboplastin reagent, prothrombin time results and the International Normalization Ration or INR on a given blood specimen varied considerably from hospital to hospital, largely because of the differences in laboratory methods. As a pioneer in the hemostasis monitoring industry, Bio/Data Corporation has developed a series of coagulation controls which should be used as reference materials for coagulation tests to ensure the highest quality consistent results.
Quick Facts
- Lyophilized for long term storage and stability
- Control plasmas for quality assurance
- Packaged in plastic vials for long term reconstituted stability
Citrex I is a lyophilized preparation of human plasma. Citrex I is normal plasma collected in a citrate anticoagulant and buffered to ensure stability...
Citrex II is a lyophilized preparation of human plasma. Citrex II has been selectively depleted of the Vitamin K dependent coagulation factors. All of the plasma is collected in citrated anticoagulant and buffered to ensure stability...
Citrex III is a lyophilized preparation of human plasma. Citrex III has been selectively depleted of the Vitamin K dependent coagulation factors. All of the plasma is collected in citrated anticoagulant and buffered to ensure stability...
Thrombolytic Control Plasma is prepared from human plasma to simulate plasma from patients treated with streptokinase or urokinase. This lyophilized control plasma contains elevated levels of Fibrinogen Degradation Products (FDP) and decreased levels of fibrinogen plasma from patients in the lytic state...
