93237-6
LaboratoryaPTT.lupus sensitive.excess phospholipid post heparin neutralization actual/normal in Platelet poor plasma by Coagulation assay
Definition
Normalized, confirmatory lupus sensitive aPTT measured after heparin neutralization, which removes the effects of any heparin that may be present in the sample. Heparin neutralization methods include the addition of heparinase, an enzyme that breaks down heparin, and heparin adsorption, in which a substance is added that binds the heparin that is present.
