Laboratoryvon Willebrand factor activity.glycoprotein Ib gain of function (GPIbM)von Willebrand factor activity.glycoprotein Ib gain of function (GPIbM) actual/normal in Platelet poor plasma by Turbidimetry
Definition
This test measures von Willebrand factor (VWF) activity using a turbidimetric method with recombinant GPIb containing gain-of-function mutations. It quantifies VWF binding to GPIb without requiring ristocetin, offering improved precision and sensitivity compared to traditional VWF:RCo assay [PMID: 25192242]
