APC Resistance (APCR)

APC Resistance Test Kit

Chromogenix Coatest APC Resistance

Clotting / IVD

Catalog #: K822643 (822643)

For in vitro diagnostic use

An APTT-based assay for the detection of the APC resistance phenotype, i.e. the poor anticoagulant response to activated protein C (APC). The test result (APC ratio) gives an estimation of the anticoagulant function in vivo and provides information on the thrombotic risk associated with inherited and acquired APC resistance. Detects the APC resistance phenotype regardless of its cause. Detects both inherited and acquired APC resistance.

Measurement principle (Coatest APC Resistance)

Plasma is incubated with the APTT reagent for a standard period of time. Coagulation is initiated by the addition of CaCl2 in the absence and presence of APC and the time for clot formation is recorded.
