PRODUCT DETAILS
The most common cause of an UNDETERMINED prolonged APTT is the presence of the lupus anticoagulant in the plasma. The inhibitory activity is demonstrable in phospholipid dependent coagulation reactions, but is observed more often in the APTT than in the Prothrombin Time (PT). The addition of Lupus Anticoagulant Confirmation Reagent will shorten the APTT time that is prolonged in the presence of the lupus anticoagulant. Thus, the platelet neutralization procedure system is a valuable diagnostic test to differentiate lupus anticoagulant from a specific factor inhibitor (e.g. Factor VIII inhibitor).
