91126-3
LaboratoryMaximum clot strength amplitude [Length] in Blood by Thromboelastography.resonance.activator F induced
Definition
The maximum clot strength in the presence of activator F, as measured by the amplitude of resonance of the blood meniscus as the blood sample clots. In this test, thrombin activity is blocked, and Activator F is used to activate fibrinogen in order to measure the clot strength based on fibrin. This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the Submitter's test kit, the TEG6s PlateletMapping ADP Assay Cartridge for heparinized blood.
