Kaolin
clotting time reagent for the detection of Lupus anticoagulants |
|
Application |
Lupus
anticoagulants (LA) screens are frequently investigated in thrombophilic
patients or women with fetal loss. The LA antibodies recognize the Prothrombin-phospholipid
complex (Human), thereby inhibiting the phospholipid dependant coagulation
reactions. The kaolin clotting time (KCT) has often been regarded as the
most sensitive test for the detection of circulating anticoagulants. |
