Samples for Coagulation Tests
|
| |
| |
| As of September 1, 2001, the Clinical Pathology Lab will no longer
be performing coagulation tests; these tests will instead be offered
exclusively by the Comparative Coagulation Laboratory in the Diagnostic
Lab at Cornell University. The Clinical Patholoigy lab will continue
to offer the Schalm's Fibrinogen test. |

Schalm's fibrinogen |
This is performed on EDTA blood only (lavender top tube). Fibrinogen
is quite stable, although hemolysis and lipemia will interfere
with the test.
