Preliminary Evaluation of a Novel Lupus Anticoagulant Activity Assay Unaffected by Anticoagulants

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
A novel one‐step lupus anticoagulant (LA) assay based on the LA‐sensitivity ratio (LA‐SR) was developed to simplify diagnostic testing and reduce potential interference from anticoagulants. The LA‐SR method showed good agreement with guideline‐based LA testing (dRVVT and/or LA‐sensitive APTT) for the detection of LA and demonstrated limited influence ...

Rapid detection of anticardiolipin antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, 1998
A rapid screening method for the detection of antiphospholipid antibodies is described. Dense, red dyed polystyrene beads coated with cardiolipin were incubated with test sera for a short period of time, then added to a microtube containing anti-human IgG in a gel provided within a pre-cast card (DiaMed ID Microtyping System).
