A NEW RAPID THROMBOCHEK TEST KIT BASED ON WHOLE BLOOD SCREENING TEST TO DETECT PLATELET HYPERAGGREGATION AT A TEMPARATURE OF 37°C IN THE CLINICAL LABORATORY

摘要

The new RAPID THROMBOCHEK TEST KIT is based on thrombochek screening test for measurement of hyperaggregable platelets in whole blood, which may be present either in form of circulating platelet aggregates, sponteniously aggregating platelets or reacting to weak agonist of platelet aggregation in low concentration – all together, in order to investigate thrombotic tendencies and to assess the efficacy of antithrombotic therapy all measured with help of hematology cell counter and magnetic stirrer at 37 °C of temperature. This is compared to the other existing microcopic method and shows 0.97% correlation. RAPID THROBOCHEL TEST KIT based on the above methodology is to be used with the aid of an automated hematology analyzer and is made available for routine clinical and office laboratory use.
