Animal Reference Plasmas |
Assayed reference plasmas are prepared from the following species:
cat, cow, dog, goat, guinea pig, horse, rat and sheep.
Normal reference plasmas serve as coagulation controls for activated
partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), prothrombin time (PT), thrombin
clotting time (TCT) and fibrinogen assays.
Specific assayed reference plasmas are also available for clotting
factors (fibrinogen, factors II-XII), antithrombin III, plasminogen
and von Willebrand factor.

In Vivo Studies |
- The Comparative Coagulation Laboratory maintains a colony of
dogs having hemostatic defects. These dogs represent naturally
occurring animal models of specific disorders including hemophilia
A (factor VIII deficiency), hemophilia B (factor IX deficiency),
type 1, 2, and 3 von Willebrand disease, Glanzmann's thrombasthenia
and thrombopathia. These dogs are available, on a limited basis,
for special in vivo studies.
